First Grade Giraffes Can't Dance....or Can They?












In First Grade art, we just finished up learning how to draw people using shapes instead of lines. We took this idea to our next project to show that you can draw anything using shapes. We read the story Giraffes Can't Dance and became illustrators to draw a scene from the book in which Gerald, the giraffe, discovers he actually is a wonderful dancer. These are colored with marker and rubbed lightly with chalk for the background. We glued them to a yellow paper and added a giraffe skin design to the border to complete. Hilarious Illustrations!
