In this article, the author describes how students can create a stunning as well as economical mosaic utilizing fall's brilliantly colored leaves, preserved at their peak in color. Start by choosing a beautiful fall day to take students on a nature walk to collect a variety of leaves in different shapes, sizes, and colors. Focus on collecting a wide range of colors of leaves, not just the most colorful ones. Back inside, guide a discussion on what makes for interesting portraiture to prepare students for the creation of mosaic leaf portraits. (Contains 1 online resource.)
