We had an awesome first week of school. I took each child's picture on our playground with a basket of apples. It is going to make a cute keepsake for the parents.
We practiced our fine motor skills by using stickers to write our names. I wrote the kids' names on a piece of paper with a marker first. Then the kids used stickers to cover the lines. They came out so cute!
The kids made these adorable apples for their parents. First, they finger painted circles on a sheet of white paper. Then I drew a stem, leaf, and apple shape on the paper. Next, the kids cut out the shapes. Last, the kids glued the pieces to black paper to make an apple.
The kids made a jelly fish craft. They had to follow verbal step by step directions to complete the project.
It was the second grade teacher's birthday so we made her a bouquet of flowers made out of cupcake liners and pipe cleaners. Each student made two flowers.
We had a wonderful first week. I have a great group of kids and cannot wait to post more fun projects this year.
