4th grade Paper Maches Ocean Animals.....Results to Come....

 
Assignment:  Choose an ocean animal that you do not know anything about.  Research, write, and draw your ocean animal.  Then the paper mache project can begin!  Using a flour and water mixture and of course a balloon, the fun and messiness can begin!   We still have to add our appendages, add a couple more layers of paper mache and then paint!  See the progression below:
 
PHASE ONE:  Newspaper layers over the balloon:
 


PHASE 2:  White paper over the newspaper:

 
 

 
 
 
PHASE 3: PAINT AND DECORATE: (finished product)
 

Don't they look great!!  Unfortunately 2 students are absent today, but their fish are still represented:) 
Can you find:  Pineapple fish, Chevron Tang, Sawfish, Swordfish, Sunfish, the Wrase and the Gulper Eel?
