Survival in Environment Science and Art Integration!

     In 5th grade we get to teach traits and heredity! Super fun! One of the standards we teach is about how animals or plants have to adapt in order to survive in their environment. My brilliant co-worker came up this an art integration activity that I absolutely loved and wanted to share!

     She gave each student a small magazine clipping (just cut it out at random). Then she asked them to glue it onto the page and make it adapt to the environment by using elements of color and line. The students got very creative! I am always so shocked to see what students come up with! Here are some examples from her class! Can you find the magazine clippings?!
