This smacks of jellies! Pun intended. We've been studying marine animals this semester in science and jellyfish in particular this week. That is the only reason why I know that a group of jellyfish are called a smack. OH! Now I get the pun! What a surprise that this week's art lesson was to draw a scene of the sea. I told the boys they had to draw at least one jelly in their scene. As you can see that's all I really wanted to draw! That poor little fish. Look how I backed him into a corner, facing that smack all alone. What must he be thinking? The lady who drew this was evil - that's what he's thinking. Maybe he can pull a Marlin/Dory move and bounce right out of harm's way. Sorry little guy! I was so caught up with the jellies.
Noah's drawing has a good assortment of animals that we have studied: sea snake, jellies, sea turtle, anemone, angler fish, crab, sea urchin, fish, shrimp, and his playful take on a box jellyfish.
Landon's is more of a smack with one scared, inking octopus thrown in for good measure.
