This collaborative buffalo grid drawing project and bulletin board display idea combines artistic expression with mathematical concepts like scale drawing, creating an unforgettable learning experience. Perfect for classroom group activities, students work together to create a stunning buffalo mural measuring 108cm x 108cm. Each student is assigned a tile featuring a pre-made grid, which they use to enlarge their section with a 1:6 scale drawing method. Advanced students can elevate the challenge by creating their own gridlines. Once their drawings are complete, students add color to their tiles and assemble them into a vibrant, cohesive buffalo mural. Teachers can follow the suggested color palette or encourage students to make creative color choices.

This project is more than just an art activity—it’s an engaging teaching tool that reinforces essential skills like proportions, scaling, and teamwork. Ideal for integration into art, math, or cross-curricular lessons focusing on wildlife or conservation, it is both educational and inspiring. The finished mural transforms your classroom into a creative hub and serves as a visually impactful display that celebrates collaboration and achievement. Through this hands-on activity, students enhance their fine motor skills, creativity, and mathematical understanding. Designed for Grades 5-12, the Buffalo Collaborative Grid Drawing Project is a fun and meaningful way to combine art and math while fostering teamwork and creativity in your classroom.

There are five 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.
