Collage Studio-Collage Around the Room! Second and Third Grade

What is a collage?
A collage is made by cutting up, arranging, and gluing down materials such as paper, string, fabric, and newspaper. 


Romare Beardon

"Coller" is a French word, that means to glue something together, so it makes sense that a collage is when you glue materials to a flat surface.
Nancy Standlee
