Description
Patriotic Agamographs for America and Canada. My original, very popular patriotic agamographs are fun and unique activities to easily integrate art into your classroom. They are often copied but never equalled!
This resource included a complete set of instructions, handouts, and teaching videos for the American and Canadian versions.
I have priced this resource assuming you will be using the American designs OR the Canadian—not both (but of course, you are free to use them all). So in other words - you aren't paying more because both countries are included!
Teaching Video Included
I have included complete teaching videos in this resource for both the American designs and the Canadian designs. Once you purchase this, you will have access to a YouTube video to stream the instructions or Dropbox to download the video.

What's an Agamograph?
A picture that morphs into another when you look at it from a different angle. The final image (after folded and put together) is approx. 10" wide by 8" high or with the writing prompt approx. 10" wide x 12" high.
It's hard to say but easy to do!
Agamographs are often only created by art teachers. However, I’ve taken out most of the “prep and mess” so that classroom teachers can also create agamographs with their students.
For patriotic holidays like Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day, I have created an image of the American flag that morphs into soldiers. I have also included designs for September 11th, where the flag and an "11" are combined.
For Remembrance Day, I have created three designs that include the Canadian flag, soldiers, and poppies in different combinations.
There is a lot of "wow factor" in this art activity—the students love the surprise. And best of all, they did it themselves!!
Use this activity for your anticipatory set or as a final art project at the end of any patriotic unit or celebration. I promise that it is easier than it seems!
The images have already been “spliced” together, and each space has been assigned a color. Students color them and then fold them. Once completed, students can walk from one side of the image to the other and watch it change!
