Rancho Lindo


Here are the three activities I had for the week.  Our first activity was a Valentines day card which I had the students work on...the challenge was to make a flower and then glue it onto the card.  We also engaged in some fun cooking.  Now onto the arts and crafts...the children painted baking cups and popsicle sticks to form the flower.  Some supplies included a hanging frame, popsicle sticks and heart candy...they glued each candy on every corner then using string they glued them onto the words, very creative!  Finally for the heart charm we used beads and a pipe cleaner...when it was all said and done we shaped the pipe cleaner into a heart and voila!  Enjoy!!!  Have fun making your own!

 
Here are some arts and crafts that our students worked on and completed last week.  The week of read around the world celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday inspired us to create the Lorax character face using paper plates, tissue paper and construction hand cut outs...thing 1 & 2 were also created using popsicle sticks, paint and feathers...The children really enjoy reading especially when you incorporate arts/crafts...the children also used a 100 number chart in order to color in a Cat in the Hat.  Enjoy!
