Salt Art Inspired by E/V Nautilus

Art in science builds neural pathways that have been proven to increase creativity, imagination, and even communication skills. In this lesson, students create their own colorful version of real deep sea creatures using a few cheap items you can find at any craft store. This a great activity to give students as a wrap up or introduction to deep sea and hydrothermal vent creatures. This lesson was created using Nautiluslive.org coloring pages but can be applied to many other deep sea themed lessons.
