How to complete this tutorial step by step?

Materials

To make a fish board you need:

- 2 white sheets (A4)

- 1 dark blue sheet (A4)

- 1 light blue sheet (A4)

- a thick black marker

- abstract shape stickers

- magazine letter stickers

- a glue roller

- a pair of scissors

- a black and white strong card frame

Step 1

Draw 3 fish (about 15 cm) on a sheet of white paper using a thick black marker.

Make a black line to separate the head from the body of the fish, then draw an eye.

Note: the uniqueness of the fish drawn by children will add charm to this creation!

Step 2

Cut out the fish, leaving a slight white border around the black line to add some contrast.

Step 3

Decorate the bodies of the fish using colored foam stickers in abstract shapes for a unique finish.

Step 4

Tear a strip of blue paper widthwise to create the waves that will form the marine background of the picture.

Step 5

Glue the wave onto a white sheet (A4 format), making sure to leave a white area of about 10 cm at the top of the page.

Note: Use a glue roller, applying glue only on the edges of the wave. This will allow us to slide the fish between the waves at the end of the activity.
