Puffin Drawing Project

Puffins are such adorable birds!  My students loved this project.
Materials: 
-colored pencils
-drawing paper
-photographs of puffins or a book about puffins

Procedure:
1) Read a book or look at pictures and make a list of observations about puffins.
2) Find the simple shapes and sketch them lightly. (Refer to my post about how to draw quail).
3) Color the puffins according to their unique and beautiful coloration.
4) Choose an appropriate habitat as a background.

An absolutely wonderful book to read with this project is Nights of the Pufflings.
