Underground Drawings
Have you ever wondered what ants really do when they go underground? Take a peek around you into the creative imaginations of second graders! You may find some ants playing sports, collecting food, painting a masterpiece, running a welcome desk, or using a baseball card as a TV. 2nd graders looked at illustrations by Beatrix Potter and Garth Williams as inspiration for their underground drawings. Students traced their detailed drawings with sharpie and added color with crayons and color pencils. Check the dirt for some awesome rock textures and you may even find some ancient bones!
