Description
A great cross-curricular art project that will engage your students!
Prior to this project, students will:
- learn about constellations in their Science space unit
- read myths connected to constellations in ELA
- learn how to plot and list points on a coordinate grid
During this project, students will:
- Design their own constellation by plotting points (stars) on grid paper
- Use push pins, q-tips, and black paper to paint the "stars"
- Write a creative name for their constellation
- Write a myth to explain the history of their constellation
RUBRIC INCLUDED! Everything is ready to go for you! All you have to do is print, and gather a few art supplies. Your students will love it!

CCSS5.G.A.1
Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., 𝘹-axis and 𝘹-coordinate, 𝘺-axis and 𝘺-coordinate).
CCSS6.G.A.3
Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
NGSS5-ESS1-1
Support an argument that differences in the apparent brightness of the sun compared to other stars is due to their relative distances from Earth. Assessment is limited to relative distances, not sizes, of stars. Assessment does not include other factors that affect apparent brightness (such as stellar masses, age, stage).
