For this project we created an underwater sea scene using watercolor paints, saran wrap, salt, and crayons. We started by practicing on a piece of paper with a variety of different techniques. We used wet-on-wet, watercolor with salt, watercolor with saran wrap, and crayons with watercolor. We also practiced drawing different sea animals. Then, we moved on to a project that combined all of these different techniques. We used the different techniques that we had learned to create an ocean scene. We first drew our animals and other things with crayon and then used watercolor. I even used the salt and saran wrap technique in my painting.
Extension Activity:
To incorporate science, students could learn about a variety of different animals in the sea and how they all interact with each other as part of a science lesson. Students might create a diorama of an ocean or be asked to write a report on a specific animal of their choice.
To incorporate social studies, students could learn about different oceans and the animals that live in them around the world. They could also learn about how people interact with the oceans and use the oceans and the animals in it for survival.
