What's in the Water?

My second grade classes and Mr. Angelo's class just answered that question! 

Using Pablo Picasso's painting, Night Fishing at Antibes as inspiration, students imagined what underwater creates might be living right here in Canandaigua Lake.

After brainstorming different types of underwater creatures and their body parts, students created their own creatures using oil pastel. To create water, students made a collage using different colors of ripped tissue paper. A few layers of Mod Podge later and our creatures were in the water and ready to swim away!

I love how colorful and unique each piece is and the wild imagination behind these creatures!
