Image Continuation

Medium: Pencil on Paper
Grade: Pre-K-12

This project was intended to strengthen the student's creative improvisation.  The children first selected an animal of their choice and found an image of that animal.  After spending only a few minutes with the full image I cut away the majority of the image, pasted it onto a large sheet of white paper and asked the students to complete the rest.

The results were both fun and revealing.  Many students proved to have a great photographic memory and could fill in the rest of the paper with an appropriate habitat and also accurately handle proportions.

This assignment can be adapted for most grade levels, with the level of expectation being raised for each grade.

Here are some examples of this great project:
