For this project we created a bug! First we observed bugs, then researched them and drew them, then made our own bug. We even got to act out how our bug interacts with other bugs. After drawing our new bug, we cut out and layered construction paper to make a "plate" to print. We used the plate to do rubbings with crayons and an actual print.
I wanted mine to be a little different, so I tried to do a more ambiguous rendition of my bug and print a collage of them. I liked this idea in theory, but I kind of wish I'd just done one big bug in retrospect. I hope to use this in the future with a class, but I'd probably just do the crayon rubbings with younger grades.
