Ellison Machine: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish

Hello again everyone! Who does not like art? This is a fun art activity to get all the children involved. After you read Dr Seuss' book "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" have each child create their own fish by tracing their hand print and post it on the poster you have in front of the class that has a giant fish bowl drawn on it. Using the Ellison Machine you would cut out the letters for the title of the book. Each child would need construction paper, markers, maybe even fun buttons, feathers and other artsy materials. Once all the children are done with making their fish you would have them go up and place them on the poster, and explain to the children that it is okay for everyone's fish to be different, as the book explains, not all fish are the same.

Below I have made a poster with using my hand prints and my sisters hand prints. We personally did not have different materials to make our fish with, but this is just a replica of what the poster would look like.
