Music Agamograph Art Activity

(0)
Agamographs provide a fun unique way of viewing art. My students are fascinated and get so excited with this art idea. This Music themed art resource is also ideal for substitute/relief teachers needing a supporting activity for music. This resource is a hands-on Music themed activity that combines two separate images into one are piece, which the viewer can then see – from different angles - each picture independently. This activity involves coloring-in, cutting, gluing and folding. You will require; coloring-in materials (pencils, felts, etc), scissors, glue-sticks. This resource has 8 Music themed images (xylophone, drum, maracas, piano, trumpet, an eighth music note, piano player, and guitar player), paired into 6 combinations, to put together and create the agamograph. There are two levels of challenge; the final image is composed of 8 strips (4 strips for one Music image and 4 strips for the other), suitable for younger students the final image is composed of 16 strips (8 strips for one Music image and 8 strips for the other) I have also included blank templates for students to create their own two images to combine.

This escape room has 3 codes to break. Escape rooms are fun and engaging for students!
