Thank you to everyone around the globe who has already submitted images. We only need a few more to start creating our ice core art composite image! I am in awe of the amazing drawings and different media being used. Keep using those markers, crayons, paints, scissor, paper and whatever other art tools you can find!
Several folks have inquired about the software we are using to create the ice core art mosaics. We will be using a program that requires manual programming but here are a few options I have found that may be easy to use in the classroom. A simple Google search will yield several other programs. Please feel free to explore these other options. Use the buttons below to download these software packages. Please note: I am not familiar with either of these programs and encourage you to search for a program that works for you.

Use the contact form or comment on this post if you'd like to get more involved. Did you submit flakes, blobs, or bubbles? Perhaps all three? If so, thank you for participating in what will hopefully be an amazing global effort! All of the drawings will be compiled into an amazing 'global ice core' as well as amazing polar themed mosaics.
