Penguin Drawing: Kindergarten
Materials: crayons, 12"x 18" white paper, penguin toys, CD sound effects from the North Coast, book Penguin and Pinecone by Salina Yoon.
The Kindergarten students read along with the story, Penguin and Pinecone by Salina Yoon. Next, we carefully drew the penguin's head, scarf, and body using different shapes and curved lines. We drew the penguin's flipper and feet as well. Since our penguin was pulling a sled through a snowstorm, we drew the sled step by step using geometric shapes. We colored in the penguin and sled, then drew the background (what is behind the penguin). The details added included falling snow, footprints, a tree, snow drifts and the wind.
