Schooling Fish - Art influenced by research

The projects featured here are made by high school students in a 9th grade Biology class who were asked to research fish that swim in schools. Students then outlines their fish in cardboard and then cut them out using the cl scroll saw and then added color with pastel chalk as close to anatomically correct as possible. 

This completed Tarpon was drawn on a 4 foot piece of cardboard by a student that will barely read and write. She is able but resists it. This was a beautiful project showing her skills which other wise were hidden.
