The theme for our scratch art project was the ocean. Once I chose what animal I would draw, I practiced my drawing on white paper. Then I used a wooden tool on the scratch paper. I started by scratching off the outline of my whale. I went back and added shadows to my whale. Then I filled in the background with seaweed, fish and a jellyfish. I made lines for water and created texture in my seaweed.
To extend on this activity, the students could write a story to go along with their ocean scene. Each student would write a one page story then glue their story and their picture onto construction paper. The teacher will laminate each students story and combine them to create one big book.
