6th Grade: Mandalas and You!

Here are the 6th-grade semester Lesson Plans to show you what our day will look like.

A MANDALA can be used for many different things. We are using them to learn about ourselves a little bit and practice our thinking, reflecting, and drawing skills. Take a look at the lesson and make one for yourself!

1. Teaching Mandala
Teaching mandalas are symbolic, and each shape, line, and color represents a different aspect of a philosophical or religious system. The student creates his or her own mandala based on principles of design and construction, projecting a visual symbolization of everything they have learned. Teaching mandalas serve as colorful, mental maps for their creators.
