3rd Grade Sea Turtles

For their first project third graders learned about Sea Turtles and how that species is an endangered species. Many artists create art to draw awareness to different causes that are important to them.

For our project, we create bright and colorful Sea Turtles using chalk pastels and glue. We used the glue to trace the pencil lines of our turtles. When the glue dried, it served as a border for our messy, but beautiful, chalk pastels! We discussed the techniques of blending and how to create highlights and shadows using this medium!

Here are a few examples of the third grade work!

Awesome job!
