Exploring the Elements of Art Through Photography

In Grade 4, we explored the elements of art through photography! 

We learned to take interesting photos by considering the compositions (rule of thirds, centered) as well as the angles (high angle, low angle, eye-level).

Then, each Grade 4 photographer edited a chosen photograph in many ways,

focusing on a different element each time.

In order to do this, we used a website called Polarr.

Take a look at our exploration of color, line, value, texture, and shape!
