Title - Let's Go Fishing
By - Earlene Bogart
Subject - Art, Science
Grade Level - PreK-K
Start circle time by putting on a fishing-vest and fishing hat with lures on it. Read them the book THE RAINBOW FISH. Ask how many of them have been fishing and where did they go. Using a piece of butcher paper approximately 6ft long or more, let children paint with different shades of blue to create a place for fish to live.
The night before this activity, go to your local store or go fishing yourself for a REAL fish. Wrap it in foil then in an old towel and freeze it. Take with you to class the next day-it will take awhile to thaw.
After children have painted the paper, have them try to guess what is wrapped in the towel. Let them feel it-then take the towel off, let them feel again. Then take off the foil--WOW!!
Their eyes really light up. You can let them touch the fish but remember to have them wash their hands afterwards. When they have had a chance to explore it, let them paint the fish. Usually a few at a time-then let each child make a fish rubbing on paper. Let dry and cut out a fish shape from their print. Display these on their large ocean painted previously.

Another activity, mix up clear gelatin and put in a fish mold. Let children use eyedroppers with different food coloring to insert in gelatin to make a rainbow fish. (Use 1 large mold or make individual ones.)
