For the project you will need:
Wagon Wheel Pasta - Dye your pasta for the Rainbows by following {these instructions}
*Note: I used three 12oz bags of pasta for twelve students and it was just the right amount.
You will need far more red and orange than any other color,
Red and Orange being the outside colors of the Rainbow.
There is no need to dye the yellow, seeing as dried pasta is already Yellow.
Wax Paper
Glue
Rainbow Template
You will do:
Place a piece of wax paper 8.5x 11 inches in size, over the top of your rainbow template.
Have the children follow the pattern, gluing and adding pasta to form a rainbow.
After the rainbows have dried, hang them up in the window, the light will shine through them making them look all the more AWESOME.
The Rainbow template that I created is below.
Feel free to use it for your own students or children.
