Our district is hosting a Celebrate Diversity event in January 2015, and has asked for artwork to be displayed from the elementaries. My grade 4 students usually open the school year with a line design/pattern project and some sort of color wheel review. This year, I tried to kill three birds with one stone, so to speak. After reviewing patterns and line designs, we painted with watercolors (reviewing the color wheel and color mixing). Then, we talked about images that symbolized peace, diversity, unity and added those to the centers of our "wheels."
