Thrilling Third Graders~ Jungle Snakes!

 
Third Grade loves snakes! We spent quite a bit of time studying their colors and patterns but more importantly learning some drawing techniques to make them appear alive in the jungle trees! 

They caught on real quick and erasers were literally worn down to make parts of the snake hide. 

I love how unique they all are and it was actually a students idea to display them end to end to make one giant snake filled tree! 

This was also our first project using liquid watercolor and I have to say that due to the bright color I am never going back to pan watercolors! 


Outlines and patterns were done with oil pastels. 
 Peekaboo!
 


The real deal. We were fascinated by these close-ups!
