Puzzle Piece

We were all given a blank white puzzle piece and asked to draw warm or cool animals. I was assigned a cool animal and decided to draw a fish. We picked a cool tints and used them on our puzzle piece. Whatever color we use on the animal we did not use in the background. We were given either geometric shapes, lines, organic shapes or texture to use in the background with the remaining colors. All the puzzle pieces would come together to create a warm and cool colored puzzle.
I would love the the puzzle piece idea because it symbolizes everyone's creative projects coming together for one uniform idea. An extension activity would be to do 26 pieces and have a student draw a 3-D letter using both warm and cool colors. In the background they can faintly write words that start with their letter.
