Shortfin Mako Shark Gliding Toward the Upper Right
Coloring guide
A sleek shark glides diagonally across the page, nose pointed toward the upper right and tail trailing at the lower left. The drawing shows a pointed snout, a round eye, and a slightly open mouth with small jagged teeth. Five curved gill slits sit behind the head, and you can see the large pectoral fin, a tall dorsal fin on the back, a lower fin near the belly, and a small fin close to the tail. The outlines are clean and the body is mostly open space, so it works well for younger kids who want big areas to fill in. Try coloring the top of the body a deep blue and leaving the belly lighter, then talk about why many sharks have darker backs and pale undersides. This printable page is also handy for a simple lesson on naming shark body parts.
