3rd Grade students learned about the author and artist, Eric Carle. They painted A LOT of paper to use in their animal/creature collages, just like Eric Carle did! In the process, they learned about several watercolor painting techniques; wet-on-wet, wax resist and adding salt to the wet paint.
The following week, students used the painted papers and created a real or imaginary creature, animal or insect. They drew backgrounds for their collage with crayon.
