Would you like to do some of our art activities with your child at home? Here is how:
K-1st:
We are making scribble dabble projects this week. Try this at home - tape bits of masking tape on paper, then color the entire page with lines or scribbling loops. Take the tape off and voila!
2nd-3rd:
We are making torn paper scarecrows this week. Take scraps of construction paper and tear out the scarecrow's body and clothing. Assemble and glue the scarecrow on a large sheet (12" x 18").
4th:
We are reinforcing what we've learned while reading Sarah Plain and Tall. Try this at home - read a book with your child and have them to design a new book cover for the story. Pick a scene from the book that your child believes to be most important or interesting. Don't forget to name your child as illustrator on the new book cover.
5th:
We are investigating contrasting colors. Pick six colors of scrap construction paper. Place the colors on top of each other, one pair at a time. Which colors are the best pairs? Which colors are the least contrasting pairs?
