Day Three & Four: Coral Reef Backgrounds~Tissue Paper Collage

# data[].attributes.body
Have each student create their own fish to add to the coral reef background and display them together to create a shoal or a group of fish.
tissue paper

Scissors

Cardstock or Watercolor paper

Glue/Water mixture (1:4 ratio)

Paintbrush

Plain glue

Pencil/eraser

Wiggle Eyes

1. Sketch out your fish shape using a pencil and an eraser.

2. Cut out pieces of tissue paper to fill in your collage.  Start with a large piece to cover the whole shape of the fish.  Paint the glue/water mixture on your paper and stick the tissue paper down.

3. Begin to layer in different pieces of tissue paper to create fun colors in your fish.  Continue to cover tissue paper with glue/water mixture as colors will bleed together.  Use plain un-watered down glue if you do not wish to have the colors bleed.

4. Fill in the background with tissue paper.

5.  Add an eye for the fish.

During Day four you have a choice of two art activities to add a backdrop to your 3-D coral reef. Let students decide which one they would like to add to their scuplture:

What You'll Need:

Washable Paints

Wide paintbrush

Pencil

Scratch foam paper or piece of styrofoam

Construction paper

Etch your design into a piece of foam paper using a dull pencil.  You may also use recycled styrofoam from food containers or to-go boxes and a dull pen.

Cover your etched plate with paint. Students stamp their design on a large sheer of paper.  Feel free to allow students to repeat using the same etched plate over and over with new colors!

Ask students What do you already know about the coral reef?  Write down the response under K on the chart.

After video/powerpoint:
After introducing students to coral reefs have students complete the KWL chart.  Ask them What have you learned about now coral reef? Complete the L on your chart.

How does this parts of a shark labelling game aid learning?

This brilliant parts of a shark interactive labelling game is the perfect tool for you to introduce sharks as a topic to your KS1 class.

Aquatic animals are vastly different to those on land, so it can be quite difficult for younger children to grasp an understanding of how their bodies work. That's why labelling activities like this one are so handy, because they provide a fantastic visual learning experience that gives kids an easier way of understanding concepts that they're not familiar with!

Twinkl Go! resources like this one are also great for use as whole-class activities, as they can easily be set up on an interactive whiteboard so that your class can take turns placing labels. They're also tailor-made for use in remote learning environments, so you can use them in online lessons or even as homework!

Sharks are just one of the many fascinating aquatic animals that live on our planet. They are useful as an introduction to life under the sea as they are not only one of the most well known aquatic animals, being a mainstay in a lot of modern pop culture, but they're also a brilliant example of what characteristics underwater life needs to survive!

This means that children can learn more about the oceans and seas of the world, and also begin to understand how different it is to life on land.

This brilliant parts of a shark labelling game is great for use as that introduction, and can act as an inspiration for children who want to learn more!

Teachers can share this resource with customised groups via children's own usernames. Just launch then click Add to Lesson.

Parents can too! All you have to do is share this resource with your own children via their own username. Just launch then click Add to Lesson.

First up, for children who have a love for games, why not get them to have a go at this Shark Themed Top Trumps Game? It's a fantastic group activity to do in the classroom or at home on a weekend. You can customise all of the top trumps cards with any species of shark that you want.

For something that will be valuable to children's English learning, take a look at this Sharks Self-Marking Reading Comprehension Activity! This interactive take on a traditional reading comprehension is a sure-fire way to keep children engaged and will help you to create cross-curricular links between English and Science.

Last but not least, we couldn't forget to include this Under The Sea Shark Video PowerPoint on our list! It's a wonderful activity for visual learners who want to learn more about these fascinating animals, complete with vibrant artwork by our brilliant design team.

What are the main parts of a shark?

There are a number of unique characteristics aquatic animals like sharks have that you wouldn't find on land animals. These characteristics help them survive underwater, much in the same way that we have characteristics that help us survive on land. There are also some characteristics that we share with these animals, as they benefit them as much as they do us! The main parts of a shark's body are as follows:

Fin - The fin on the shark's back is there to give them more control over the direction that they're swimming in.

Tail fin - The tail fin is quite similar, except it's at the end of their tails, meaning it's the fin they use to swim with!

Gills - Gills are what help the shark breath underwater!

Eyes

Snout

Nostril

Jaw

Teeth
