We started this project by practicing drawing lines upside down. We then picked a safari animal from a group of pictures. We were told to draw the animal upside down on a white sheet of paper with a light blue colored pencil. We could use any cool color for our drawing, but light blue works the best. The next step was to take out our warm colored crayons. We were to make patterns over the safari animal on our paper. We needed to cover the whole paper and try to hide our animal.
Before we started our collage we made safari glasses so that we could see our hidden animals. Once we finished the collage, we could look through our glasses at our picture to find the hidden safari animal.
An extension activity for this project could be reading a story along with making the collage. They could also make an ecosystem for the safari animals or draw a map of the country that safari animals live in.
