Something Fishy!!

 This was a process work of art. It filled up the entire hour and for some children, the hour was not enough. This is ok. The way I work is giving children enough time to work as they need. Some kids are super fast and others are more slow.
 This project was about pattern, design, colour and the art elemnets of hot and cold colours




 Each child had to observe a different fish and draw it in its simpliest shape. Then we traced it and then cut out the tracing and another piece of card together. Each child had one fish and now they could create pattern and design with this one fish.
 They traced their pictures and when the page was full, they could begin adding colour.


 At this point a decision had to be made. would my fish like to be cold coloured fish or warm coloured fish.
 If the fish were cold, then the background was warm and visa versa.

 These are some of the delightful results. Are they simply just not gorgeous!!!!
