Judy-
I purchased the Gyotaku video last year and have used it with 6th grade.
It's precise and informative. The kids enjoyed it. On our budget we could
only buy one set of fish molds, so in order to use the fish quickly, we
used water soluable markers instead of painting. Not as detailed, but the
concept is the same.
