Observe the theme’s shapes

Before choosing colors, locate tentacles, fins, shells and wave lines. Separate foreground and background, then test a short palette on scrap paper. Repeat a color to connect details in different parts of the picture.

After the activity

Separate living things from landscape features; explain why a whale is not classified as a fish. Explore sea animals and ocean scenery through words, shapes and routes.

Try a small palette

Choose three or four colors and test them together on scrap paper. Repeat a color in separate areas to connect them visually, or leave some spaces white. With markers, place a protective sheet underneath and check whether ink shows through.
