I have been loving the ideas Im getting from my blog roll, it is better than any lesson book I have ever seen! I loooove this lesson I found at the Crafty Crow from Use Your Colored Pencils, it was so much fun for our 1st grade classes! We started with a sharpie drawing of ourselves underwater, we discussed the feeling of floating in the water, we added goggles, snorkes and bathing suits. We then colored our selves with oil pastels. THEN CAME THE TRUE FUN... we sent our portrait swimming a blue tub of "ocean" water...AND THEN THE FUN CONTINUED... when we crinckled up our art work to give a textured look of waves. We then topped this project off with using some bottle caps to make bubbles floating out of our snorkles.
