When finished, students will cut out their penguin and glue them to the painted paper. When glued on, they will add 2 ovals underneath the feet to create shadows.
Students will be creating their own Penguin Landscape. We talk about landscapes, horizon lines, shadows and value. To create the sky on their landscape, students use bleeding tissue paper (my favorite)! They put water on the paper first, then add the tissue paper and lastly they add more water on top of the tissue paper. Once the tissue paper dries, they remove the tissue paper to reveal a colorful sky. Then on a separate piece of paper they will be drawing their penguins. They will use Black, Grey and White Oil Pastels to blend the color together to show VALUE. When finished, students will cut out their penguin and glue them to the painted paper. When glued on, they will add 2 ovals underneath the feet to create shadows. I have included the handout that I give to the 3rd graders to help them break down drawing a penguin and how to draw value. We used oil pastels but this would work with chalk, colored pencils or crayons.
