Hidden Safari 

First, I made a pair of red glasses that I thought were really cool. I practiced how to draw upside down. Then I picked an animal I wanted to draw upside down on a piece of paper. I chose to draw an elephant because I think elephants are really neat. So I made the elephant, but I used a blue pencil. Then after I got done drawing the elephant, I made a pattern to cover the elephant up. I used yellow first and made circles around the whole paper. Then I used red for the swirly things on top of the yellow circles. The last color I used was orange and I put triangles all over the piece of paper. As a result, it ended up covering up the elephant I created. Then I used my red glasses to see if I could still see my elephant and I could so it worked.  The last thing that I did was write three things that would describe the animal that is hidden on the paper, so that people could guess what animal I created.

For an extension activity, I would show students some animals that are hidden in the safari. They would have to use their red glasses to see what it is. Then after they tell me what animal it is, I would teach my students some facts about each animal. Also, they will learn about what a safari is, what/who lives in the safari, where the safari is located, what do the animals that live on the safari eat, and what type of plants there are. Then I would have them pick an animal or plant and find a few facts about the animal or plant. They would share the facts with the rest of the class.
