Layered Self-Portraits, part 2

Do Now: Draw an underwater scene that you might see while you were scuba diving. It can be realistic or fantasy. 

Today, the 3rd and 4th graders finished their layered self-portraits. First, students made colorful pictures full of symbols that represented themselves. Next, each child received a piece of tracing paper, on which they drew a detailed portrait of themselves using only pencil and black marker. 

The results were beautiful, colorful self-portraits that really look like our 3rd and 4th graders!
