In this Noah's Ark piece, each child was assigned an animal and colored a Shrinky-Dink shape of that creature.  A 16x20 canvas was painted with acrylic paints and a 3-D boat was built out of heavy wood-grain cardstock.  The students loved using different media including moss, real tree branches, glitter, paper, cotton and tulle, to make the imagery pop off the canvas.  We wanted to show hope and growth after storm in both nature and life.
