Heroes for Hire

Hero Cards

Villain Cards

What colors make you think of good?  What about evil?  Do certain shapes seem dark and dangerous?  Do certain images seem noble?  The 5th and 6th graders continued their lessons on color schemes by considering these and other questions that came up as they created logos for themselves.  With their initials, they were challenged to create a logo with their initials and a business card for themselves with one side showing an ad for a hero and the other a villain.  They decided primary colors represented good.  Blue and red seem patriotic, and yellow is like a gold medal.  Green, purple and orange reminded the students of evil and Halloween.  Shapes were sharp and jagged in the villain designs.  I was impressed with their creativity!
