I love all the animal artwork which is part of the Zoology block. So fun!
And everyone's work is always so different; even though we are all studying and writing about the same topics in the main lesson books, every single book is unique. You can really see each individual personality shine through!

ready for our watercolor pencil drawings

self-portrait as a celestial being
adding water turns the pencil into paint
spreading color away from where she doesn't want it

writing in the MLB in Script
The Head, Trunk, and Limbs
adding The Cuttlefish to the MLB

I had one of these shells for us to look at
mono printing
spreading the acrylic paint evenly using a brayer
making the snail spiral design with a cotton swab
smoothing the paper evenly on top

seeing the finished print is the most exciting part
friends gather around, eager for the big reveal
our first four snail shell spirals
