CREATE stations: A is for ART....a THIRD GRADE STATION



Third graders are studying aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and their diversity. These Quivervision coloring sheets have so many options. When the animal turns 3D, students can see in vivid detail the animal as well as the ecosystem surrounding the animal. 

The art station has become one of our very favorites. If you are interested in the free station signs, standards, and "I Can" statements, you can view and download the signs HERE

To get started on this unit, students can research an aquatic animal during their EXPLORE library station. I have an activity for students to research aquatic animals using a Britannica resource pack (you will need to have a subscription to access) or a print encyclopedia. I like both activities for different reasons. The print encyclopedia allows students to find information, identify parts of an encyclopedia and nonfiction text features. Check out the freebie here: EXPLORE STATION


Once the research is completed, students can really enjoy the art station and how these animals come to life. If you are interested in this station and the new Quivervision Educational Dashboard, you can access it using this link: QUIVERVISION

Looking to start up a Quivervision library station? Here is a great tutorial on how you can get started: watch the video. This is a great slideshow to get you started that you can access here

Look at this shark picture! This is definitely a fan favorite among the third grade learners.  When they turn their picture into AR, they see the coral reef habitat as well as the food chain! Our students were awed by the details, and they definitely take their time coloring their sheet. 




Here is the sign that covers the art station for grades 3-5. We use this one at the table for our art stations.
