Art+Octopus+Project+-PreK-K

The PreK and K have been working on a large octopus as an art project. The children used papier mache to create this octopus shape and then they painted it.

Here are some pictures of the day we started to paint our octopus.

The children voted on a name for our class octopus. He is called Octopus. The children learned that the octopus has 8 arms so they can be good swimmers. There are many different kinds of octopi. An octopus bobs up and down when he swims. They can be different colors. They can camouflage with other things. Octopus can stick to things and squeeze into small places. There are different sizes of octopi.
