Shapes, Rulers, and More
Shapes, Rulers, and More!!
Step 1: Talk to the kids about how to use a ruler. Give them a black permanent marker and have them make shapes on their large white paper.
Step 2: Paint each shape a different color.
Step 3: Feel very proud of the amazing art that you just made.
I thought of this project in the middle of the night. I would say this is a "me original". I did this with my Pre-K class- 4-5 year olds. Some of the comments while doing this project were, "this is awesome", "i love this", "this is so cool", "can I make another one?", "can we do this again?". Oh how that makes my heart flutter and my pride soar as the kids see what amazing artists they can be!! This is a must do with Pre-K kids, it is such a confidence booster! Also, apparently this project covers 5 kindergarten ready benchmarks!! :)
