Kaleidoscope Lettering Symmetry Project - Designs with Names or Inspiring Words
Kaleidoscope Lettering uses the concepts of bilateral (reflective) symmetry, tessellation, and positive/negative space to transform a name, initials, or an inspiring word into a unique design that looks much more complicated to create than it actually is! This project was so successful and so well-loved by my students that I did it year after year... until I figured out we were doing it the hard way! Here I’m sharing my new and improved method that is faster, easier, and virtually mistake-proof!

AVID Reading/Novel Study One-Pager EDITABLE
I use these One-Pagers as a final project after we have completed a novel study or story. The template serves as guidelines for students to know how to design their One-Pager. I find they work best on white cardstock or construction paper. You can make them 8.5x11 or 11x17, depending on what you are making and how big you want them to be. I encourage students to be CREATIVE, take their time, use a ruler, and make it look the best they possibly can. It is a great way to show their learning, while
