This Valentine’s Day, Inspire Creativity with a Rose Grid Drawing Collaborative Poster!

Bring the spirit of Valentine’s Day into your classroom with this rose-themed classroom art project, designed to engage students in grades 3-12 in a creative and collaborative experience. This collaborative mural activity allows students to work together to create a stunning rose mural measuring 90cm x 108cm. Each student is assigned a tile featuring a pre-made grid, which they use to enlarge their section using a 1:6 scale drawing method. For advanced students, the challenge of creating their own gridlines adds an extra layer of skill-building. Once completed, students color their tiles and assemble them to form a vibrant and cohesive single rose mural. With unassigned colors, teachers have the flexibility to follow the suggested palette or encourage students to make unique artistic choices.

This project doubles as an educational tool and a Bulletin Board craft, providing an eye-catching classroom decoration while teaching valuable art and math skills. Students improve their understanding of proportions, spatial relationships, and fine motor skills through the grid drawing technique. Moreover, the collaborative aspect of the activity promotes teamwork, communication, and a sense of accomplishment as students see their individual efforts combine into a stunning group masterpiece. Teachers can seamlessly integrate this project into lessons about art techniques, geometry, or the symbolic meaning of roses in history and culture, making it both a festive and enriching classroom experience.

There are three different grid variations that you can choose from, ranging from dark to light lines. These grids align perfectly with the enlarged squares, making it easy for students to transfer the image without additional measurements.
