Presentation Transcript

  1. OCEAN and YOU provides models of 100 or so different marine animals, & coloring sheets to match. Kids are freed of the anxiety of drawing, & can observe the colors & textures of the animals quite closely. In this case, a second-grader named Zak noted the barnacles on the humpback whale. (He drew the seaweed in green; the yellow tint is a problem with my scanner).

  2. Marco, a first grader, colored this whale shark, & traced the words describing the animal’s adaptations. I was a bit surprised to find that kids from Kindergarten to Fourth grade enjoyed this activity.

  3. Killer Whale • sleek body for fast acceleration • pointy nose and lots of teeth for biting • blowholes to breathe above water • flat tail like other whales • whales are mammals • hunters eat seals & fish

  4. Humpback Whale • large body for cruising • big mouth and baleens for filtering • blowholes to breathe above water • flat tail like other whales • whales are mammals • grazers eat plankton

  5. Great White Shark • sleek body for fast acceleration • pointy nose and lots of teeth for biting • gills to breathe underwater • vertical tail like other fish • sharks are fish • hunters eat seals & fish

  6. Whale Shark • large body for cruising • big mouth and gills for filtering • gills to breathe underwater • vertical tail like other fish • sharks are fish • grazers eat plankton

  7. I asked the kids to paint something they like about the ocean. Many were inspired by my story about a sea serpent.

  8. Octopus’ bodies are paper cups, of course. Construction paper legs are precut for small kids. Roll on a pencil to curl. Use binder paper reinforcements for suckers. Eyes are huge; I happened to luck into some human-eyeball confetti for Halloween. Google eyes should be at least 1” in diameter.

  9. Fish is a plastic soda bottle with cardstock fins. Most people use paint for the scales. I tried sticky dots, but the big ones didn’t stay stuck. Fish collage from trash: A box of candied chestnuts, bubble wrap and a google eye.
