Square 1 Art* Second Grade: Fish Collages

Students first painted the background for their fish collages. Blue and white paint were mixed directly on their papers. Adding white to a color makes a tint. Students mixed the paint on their paper to look like the ocean and used a plastic fork to make wave lines in the wet paint

To create their fish, students discovered how they could use shapes to make their fantasy fish. Students drew in pencil, went over them in sharpie and colored them in with crayons. The fish were cut out and glued to the water background. Then extra details were added… sand, seaweed and coral.
