The Spiral Shell Snail
(K-3rd | 2×45 min)
In this mixed media lesson, artists will build a snail with a textured spiral shell, customized with expressive features like antennae and big or small eyes. This project encourages creative decision-making, design thinking, and fine motor development. It introduces physical texture and 3D form. Inspired by the true story of Jeremy, a rare left-spiraling snail, this activity celebrates uniqueness and diversity in nature.
