Second graders reviewed the different parts of an insect such as the head, antennae, and torso before creating these symmetrical drawings. Students drew 1/2 of their insect using an oil pastel.

Once the first half was transferred students had a symmetrical drawing! Here are the beautiful insects being painted!
