Jellyfish

Wax crayon and watercolour resist.
 
Whilst exploring the beach at Llandudno this week, the children discovered some jellyfish washed up on the sand. This sparked great discussion and the desire to find out more about them.  We started by watching some clips on YouTube of different types of jellyfish and then created some art work based upon this.
 
 
 Nathanael and Tabitha then made little jellyfish shaped books based upon what they had learned. Nathanael was delighted to be able to word process his book.
 

 
 
 
 This has tied in nicely with our current project on the Human Body, as the children discovered that jellyfish are invertebrates and were able to compare and contrast them to vertebrates.
