2nd Grade- Organic Boogers

This lesson we focused on secondary colors and organic shapes.
We began this lesson by reading I am a Booger, Treat Me with Respect. The students thought this book was hilarious. It discusses how boogers are defenders, they help keep you safe and healthy by catching germs from entering your body. This is why boogers are gross, because they are covered in germs themselves.

After we read the book, students went to work and drew a booger. I taught them about organic shapes and their booger's body needed to be an organic shape as well. I also reminded them to make their booger big so we will have plenty of room to paint, and to add lots of details.After using pencil, we went over the lines with permanent marker.



The second day we painted. Students had to mix their own paint colors by using primary colors. Here are some of the results.
