Fish Making


Painted fish


First we cut out fish
then we draw with beeswax crayon


Then we paint them with Lyra watercolour paints






Beautiful fishes swimming in and out of the seaweed
(crepe paper hanging down on window)




Paper fishes


First we draw simple fishes
and cut out




With beeswax crayons
we add eyes and patterns



Then we place them on tissue paper
on our underwater scene




Simple felt fishes




Felt scraps are gathered

Cutting begins
then some glueing ......no lots of glueing
see all the stripes.....


Lots of fishes
swimming in the ocean....

this led onto lots of maths ,
counting, dividing out to us all
and o my when the shark came and ate some
how many left.......
(this all just happened naturally)
