A great lesson submitted by Karen Larmour - Teacher, Salem Baptist Christian School, Winston Salem, North Carolina, USA
What You Need:
What You Do:
- The students drew the outline of a fish on large paper. Black paper works best.
- They added scales, fins and any other detail they wanted.
- The students then traced over these lines with glue and allowed it to dry.
- The students then colored in the areas that were not covered with glue with oil pastel. The brighter the better. The effect was wonderful.
- We entered some of the fish in a local art show and won best in show.
