2nd Grade Gyotaku/Collage Results
Here are a few of this week's gyotaku results from 2nd graders. As children cut out their fish, colored the eye (trying to pick up one color from their background) and glued the fish, meaningful conversation included words like: overlap, diagonal, horizontal, and balance.

ReplyDeleteI love the results.Colors and textures are so beautiful.
I just love the way these came together - really fabulous! I suppose I should some day blog my gyotaku story, working with a real fish. I have written about it as a comment of other blogs when they post gyotaku, but I have never actually told it on my own blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for blogging this impressive lesson.
ReplyDeleteSo impressive- the amount of detail in the fish prints is so fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI know!! These rubber fish have really detailed scales, etc!!!
DeleteThese look great.
ReplyDeletewhat color did you use for printing that gave it a two toned look?
ReplyDeletegreat prints
We simply used Sax black cake tempera, thinned just enough with water to get a good print of the fine scales.
