Shark Week Art Activities

Help me give my students exciting shark themed art activities to celebrate shark week at school!!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shank's classroom raised $188

This project is fully funded

My Project

Beyond excitement and suspense, Shark Week offers amazing art and educational opportunties within the classroom! Students can use the fascinating information they will learn about sharks to complete awesome art projects!

Shark Week is a popular annual television event that celebrates the fascinating creatures of the ocean-let's bring it into the classroom with fun art activities!!

Students will be engaged with fun shark art activities for a week!! They will create their very own shark posters, learn how to use stencils to create realistic shark images, and cooperate as a group to complete giant shark murals to display in our hallway.

Thank you so much for considering this exciting project for my third grade students. I can't wait to start planning a week of shark themed art activities!
