Texture Dragons

Texture Dragons

These 6th grade dragons were an easy and fun three day project! All students finished and were sucessful creating their work of art!

The students began the project drawing a dragon. The students used their imagination to come up with their unique dragon design.

Next the student used texture plates and crayons to fill the dragon with different textures. I required the students to have a minimum of four different textures inside of the dragon.

The students then outlines the dragon in sharpie and cut the dragon out.

The finished project resulted in the dragon glued onto colored construction paper as seen below.
