Poppy Art – Remembrance Day, Memorial Day, Armistice Day, Anzac Day.
A ‘Fun with a Ruler’ art project for your students to complete leading up to Remembrance Day / Memorial Day / Armistice Day / Anzac Day.
This project involves your students ruling straight lines between 2 dots on a template, to create a poppy. Your students could write something in the petals before colouring (eg facts, opinons, a 4 line poem, etc). Display them together to make a 'poppy patchwork quilt'.
Included:
♦ Template – black dots
♦ Template – light grey dots
♦ Example – black/white
♦ Instructions
♦ Teacher notes
Level of Difficulty:
Your students need to be able to use a ruler to draw straight lines between 2 points (the curves are made with straight lines … it’s like magic!). The design looks more complicated than it actually is. Concentration is required, but the actual process is not difficult. A pattern is repeated 8 times.
Instructions:
Simple, clear, easy-to-follow instructions are provided. One instruction per page (image and a sentence). Display the instructions via a data projector if you have access to one. Otherwise print and enlarge them and/or demonstrate on an enlarged template.
Equipment:
You need a ruler and a pen (black works best). Something to colour with (eg coloured pencils, watercolours, felt tip markers, chalk pastels, dye, etc)
Size:
The artwork measures approximately 17cm x 17cm. Designed on A4 size paper.
Keywords: string art, parabolic curves, math, geometry, patterns, war, symbolism, veteran,

Anzac Day -'Battleshots' game
A super-fun game that your students will love! Particularly suitable for New Zealand and Australian classrooms that are looking for learning activities based around Anzac Day.
You’re in a trench above Anzac Cove. You receive a coded message from your Commander. Decipher the code and then prepare for battle against a classmate …
The game is based on the popular game of ‘Battleships’ but this game has an Anzac theme. Players give co-ordinates to destroy enemy targets in the area across from ‘No Man’s Land’.
Vocabulary used in this game will prompt further research to develop a deeper understanding of the time soldiers spent in Gallipoli (eg, bivvy, jam tin bomb, stores, field gun, trench, etc).
This resource contains 3 different levels of the code breaking task and the game templates. It will suit a range of abilities, allowing you to differentiate your student’s learning. I believe it suits students from approximately Year 4 upwards (age 8/9 yrs+).
Included:
♦ Pre-game codebreaking task – decipher the message that is written in Morse Code (3 different levels). Optional task (it doesn't affect the game).
♦ Game instructions
♦ Game templates (3 different levels)
♦ Post-game activity – write a Morse code message back to your Commander informing him of the outcome of the battle.
Math Learning Objective:
Geometry (position and orientation): Communicate and interpret location using grid references.

Rotational Symmetry – Art activity – Maths (Geometry)
Rotational Symmetry Art Activity.
This fun activity produces fantastic designs that your students will be super proud of.
Each template has rotational symmetry of order 6 and is on isometric dot paper. Your students simply add more lines (ensuring each line is done 6 times to keep it symmetrical), using the dots to maintain accuracy. When your students are happy with their final design they can colour it in using symmetrical colouring.
Afterwards, your students may wish to cut their design out and use it in another piece of artwork. For example, adding a stem and leaves to turn it into a flower.
Plain isometric dot paper has also been provided as a basis for your students to create their own rotational symmetry design from scratch.
Provided as two separate files – A4 paper size and Letter paper size.
What you get:
• 30 templates on isometric dot paper
• Poster explaining rotational symmetry
• Isometric dot paper (plain)
• Teacher notes
