Hidden Safari

 

This is my Hidden Safari project. For this activity, I chose to hide a monkey. What I did first was took a book crayon and had the monkey image upside down and I tried to replicate it.  This helps you focus on the lines, rather than the entire image. When doing this step, be careful not to press to hard with the crayon. I did in my artwork, and me monkey isn't very well hidden. So be sure you press lightly with the blue crayon. Once completed with your animal, find your warm colors. With your warm colors draw whatever kind of shapes and patterns. Try to fill your page with you shapes and patterns so that you hide your animal. You want to make it difficult so that you can't see your animal unless you have on your red glasses. The red glasses allow the animal to be visible. 

My Hidden Safari Clues:

1. You can find me hanging in a tree.

2. The animal is usually brown.

3. This animal loves bananas. 

An extension activity for this for students to do would be to learn about different animals. I would assign students different animals and they will be assigned to research information about their animal. The students would  find 5-7 facts about their animal and share them with the class.
