In 3rd grade I showed a powerpoint about turtles. I explained many interesting facts, such as how the leatherback sea turtle can be 2000 lbs, and how the snapping turtle can reach 200 lbs and has a worm-like appendage on its tongue that helps lure unsuspecting fish.
The first day I demonstrated how to draw a turtle. After they picked which shade of green paper they liked best, they drew their turtle with pencil and then outlined it glue. The next day they took chalk and filled in their turtle. I encouraged them to consider coloring their turtle different than what they would normally do. I also demonstrated how to mix and blend the chalks.
