Tuck Everlasting- searching for lost activity

[Mrs. G]

I am searching for the directions to an activity that I did about 20 years ago with a reading class. It involved the students using water colors to paint a sunset background. Then they cut out a black silhouette of Tuck and Winnie from a particular part of the story.

If any one has or remembers what source this activity came from I would appreciate the info.

Sounds like a fun activity

I searched but did not find it. Sorry. Good luck!

Something Close?

I did something that like years ago with geese flying over a sunset. It was striking! Another teacher came in and asked to "redo" it for her class. She used blue tones, then printed graphics of fish and made templates onto black paper.

If you don't find yours, maybe you can do something close and make your own templates using clip art? Hope that idea is helpful!

Tuck Everlasting -

There are a ton of activities on this site and maybe what you are looking for is there.

This site is pretty comprehensive and does have a water color activity although it isn't quite the same as what you described. It's on pg. 96.

Thanks

Thanks for the good resources. I think I am just going to piece the activity together from memory. I have figured out the scene comes from Chapter 12. The water color directions may be a little off, but I think they will still turn out nicely.
