Lines, Lines, and Fish Bowls Oh My!!

We are studying LINES right now and we started this project today. They are not done yet, but I just couldn’t wait! I will post some finished ones next week! We have done the crazy Hair Day project in the past but I thought this would be fun and the kids LOVED it!

They had a HUGE VARIETY of materials, paint, markers, colored pencils, stamps, crayons, and, oil pastels

Students had to make the lines OVERLAP by stopping and continuing on the other side when it crossed over.



 
I can’t WAIT for them to finish! Their line ideas were AWESOME!
Kinder and first grade are making fish bowls
I got this idea on pinterest from this blog http://www.walkingbytheway.com/blog/?p=821
 
Of course we put our own twist to it. It was a good way to get kinder painting and learning our procedures with paint and clean up! One kid suggested our fish have a castle, so some drew it with pastels and I cut some out to glue on.

1. glue bowl to paper
2. paint water LIGHT blue using the paint, dip in water THEN go to paper technique
3.paint rocks, and a plant
4. hand print sideways
5. decorate with oil pastels and paper scraps

I got these really cool goobly eyes at Michaels in the Halloween craft section! They were purple, orange, and green
