After reading the activity a few times, I’ve arrived at the conclusion that my students can use a self portrait and fill the inside of those 5 animals, at least five. In other words, in an 8 x 11 sheet have your students draw a picture of themselves. After choosing the 5 animals have them fill in the face but leaving the eyes, nose and mouth part uncovered. Since I have kinder kiddos, I will have them cut out picture of animals from magazines and they will paste them to their canvas. Any area that is not covered by the animal cutout I will have them color in using water colors. Before the activity I will discuss the many feeling we may have during the day, or what ever. Then follow up the discussion by reading The Mixed-Up Chameleon by Eric Carle. The title should be something like, The Happy Me. Anyways, I love the idea, its just the execution of it that is vague to me since I’m art deficient.

I too would be interested in a final product to view as a sample of this activity.

I really like this idea, if possible could someone send my and e-mail with a picture of someone who has crated this or mentored someone who created this. I would really like to see a photo of a finished product. I am going to start helping some students who have emotional problems and I just wanted a little push. I will be working with elementary students any activities will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
