Classroom & Home Ideas

• Layered petal study. Color each ring of lotus petals a different shade, moving from pale petals outside to darker petals near the center.
• Classroom lotus pond. Have each student color and cut out a lotus flower or lily pad. Arrange the pieces on blue paper to make one large classroom pond.
• Petal counting page. Number the visible lotus petals before coloring them. Use a symmetrical bloom to compare the petals on its left and right sides.
• Pond reflection picture. Color a lotus on calm water, then draw a softened reflection beneath the flower with light blue, pink, or purple pencils.
• Warm and cool blooms. Print one lotus page twice. Color the first with warm pinks and yellows, and the second with cool blues and purples.
• Lotus pencil sign. Use the cute page with floating pencils as a sign for a classroom art station. Add each child's name above the colored flower.
