I printed this template for a heart paper project for K. She didn't want to do the cutting, so I did it and she did the assembling and gluing. Can you tell we used scrap construction paper? I was hoping she'd glue the marker side to the white paper, oh well. :o)
We also made this fun project for our valentine cards (yes, we're late with sending them this year).
We didn't make them as big as the directions from this website, but they still look cute. The kids were amazed how fast the iron melted the crayon shavings. D was begging to make his own crayons - I assured him another day. We have a big bucket of "junk crayons" for projects like this!
The kids began Unit 13 today!
K learned about David and made this cute little torn paper art project complete with cotton ball sheep! She drew the flowers all by herself!
D enjoyed using carob chips for his math activity today. He drew "picnic blankets" (rectangles) on a piece of construction paper and then we chose varying amounts of "ants" to invade the picnic blankets. As I told him the "problem" to figure out, I'd write it on the small marker board. He did well!
We reviewed seasons today for science and D drew this project...a bush changing through the seasons...I love that he drew a snowman next to the bush in the winter. White crayon wouldn't show up on the white paper so he opted for gray. :o)
D learned what "Fantasy" genre is as we began reading The Cricket in Time Square. He was delighted the little boy's name is Mario! After chapter 1 he begged me to continue reading, but since we're reading the book over the next 20 days I told him no. :o( That's the only bad thing about storytime books...we have to make them last! We can't devour them in a day or two. ;o)
