After looking at The Goldfish by Paul Klee, students created their own fish scene underwater. With only a blue oil pastel crayon, they drew a fish - adding fins, eyes, mouth, and scales. They drew lines for water and plant life they would see in the ocean. They colored their fish yellow. Then using only black paint, they painted over the markings. You should have seen their eyes when the paint didn't cover up the markings! It was priceless!About Me

- My name is Sara and I am an art teacher at a small elementary school in the Sunshine State. I teach Kindergarten through fifth grade students. I believe arts education is an integral part of a child's success in school and in life. Students take home more than projects they've completed. They come home with confidence, passion, curiosity, and most importantly, "life".
