Rainbow Fish! with Kindergarten

Fishy Fishy

At the end of the school year, my kindergarten art class made some really colorful fish after reading the book Rainbow Fish .

The students drew their fish on large posterboard (these were BIG fish).  Then, they cut out paper pieces (I encouraged them to cut circles) from a variety of patterned and foil papers.

Then, some of the kids chose to use paint dotters to add additional color.

I I did this project again, I would have the kids use a smaller piece of paper.  (The poster board took WAY too long.)  I would also probably have them cut and paste their shapes first on the white paper, then flip it over, draw their fish and cut out.
