Spanish Tile Project




Spainish Tile Project:
Students are given a worksheet on History of Spanish Tile and Reference photos.
Student are given a worksheet with tiles that are divided in 4 sections they must first complete a design for one section then repeat the pattern.

The class analyzes and compliments certain elements of each design. Students are encouraged to pick one design to enhance.

Once the final design has been decided students pick a background color.
Students then are given a 4x4" square and measure out and lightly trace a grid to base the design on.

Students finalize paint colors and learn to layer the paint for more intricate designs.
The finishing touches are added with gel pens and mounted on black matt board.

Students have a final analysis of the completed works.

This project can be completed with construction paper or tiles depending on budget.
