Splish Splash, Ocean Wonders!

Help me give my students a memorable art experience! We will participate in a school-wide "under the sea" art project! I would love for each student to have this opportunity! The watercolor sets and Sharpies will be helpful!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Young's classroom raised $302

My Project

My students are diving deep into the wonders of the open water. We will be creating fish inspired by their imaginations and their curiosity! Students will use their watercolor paper and Sharpies to design a fish that is made of shapes, lines, and colors. After creating a unique fish, we will then use watercolors (the awesome sets I have requested) to paint them! It is my hope for each student in my school to have an opportunity to experience painting!

Our goals will be to learn about lines, shapes, and even two groups of colors ( warm and cool)!

My students are great, they are creative, curious, and open to exploration. Many of my students come from homes with no art supplies and my room is often the only place they get to experience "art-making".
