About this School Project (Turtles and Tortoises)
Students are able to compare and contrast the differences between a turtle and a tortoise. Students are knowledgeable with facts and characteristics of both. They were introduced to the various steps of creating a sculpture. Students started with an armature for the skeletal structure. Then they used Paper Mache to create the turtle's "skin". Lastly students painted their turtles using a base coat, then painted on a their second color, and finally painted on a design and details for the shell.
