Rainbow Fish!

We did a Marcus Pfister author study in January, early February. We LOVE the Rainbow Fish series! It has such a good moral to the story, and brings up great friendship topics! We used a web graphic organizer to help us write what friendship means and examples of what a good friend does. For an art project, I used an outline of a fish and asked the kids to draw scales and color them as hard as they could with crayon to get a lot of wax on the paper. Then, we went over the crayon with watery blue paint and let it dry. We cut a holographic gift bag to make individual rainbow scales. Some of the fish came out so good!
