Paper Rainbow Mosaic - finished arched more tightly papered rainbowRainbow crafts are popular for the St. Patrick's Day theme. There are so many different ways to create and learn about them. One way is to make a mosaic. This craft is simple and can lead to unique ideas about how to represent a rainbow. Many students in my class stuck with "ROY G BIV", while others made straight lines and color explosions. Any way the craft is completed, the rainbows are still beautiful.
