Eric Carle Inspired Collage

The picture above was inspired by the artist Eric Carle. In class, we watched a video on him and viewed his artwork. He uses special papers that he makes himself. With these papers, he makes different scenarios and makes a story out of it. His most famous work is the short story "The Very Hungry Caterpillar". Eric Carle's work is outstanding and is an inspiration to children everywhere. His creativity is spectacular and kids love reading his books.
He is a great artist to include into the classroom. A teacher can create a unit based from a book he wrote. As a teacher, you could incorporate Eric Carle's work in your reading section. You can share his books with the students and let his work inspire them.
