Pete the Cat and a Sea Turtle (July 10th, 2012)

    Today we pretended to design illustrations for a new book inspired by Pete the Cat: Rocking in my School by Eric Litwin, Illustrations by James Dean.  
Here is the video we watched during snack:

   
                                       
Camryn drew a cat using basic shapes in pencil. Next, she outlined the cat with a thin brush of any color paint and a thick brush to fill it in! 

Alex drew a sea turtle using basic shapes in pencil. Next, she outlined the sea turtle with a thin brush of any color paint and a thick brush to fill it in! 

Caitlin and Addison Painted their pre-drawn cats and used a Big brush to paint it in. 

While our cats dried, it was time to create the details.....
I asked the girls, "What is it about our cats/sea turtle that makes them "Cool" like Pete? " They said; "Sneakers for sure!" 
And a lot of other stuff too!
