Activity: Students got to choose a safari animal to draw in a light blue colored pencil. After students drew the animal, they used warm colors (red, orange, and yellow) to create different patterns that covered the entire page. They were able to use different colored crayons to create at least three different patterns. The patterns were to help disguise their animal. After, students glued their paper to the background color. They also wrote three clues to help people guess what their animal is. Students then used the red film glasses they made to see what each other's animals looked like.
Extension Activity: We could cover a lesson on life science and learn about different animals in different ecosystems. Learn about the different animals that live in certain environments and why. Each kid could research a new animal and present information on where it lives, why it lives there, features about it, and then create a new hidden page with their new animal, including three new clues. Other classes can then interact with it.
