2nd Grade: Pointillism Fall Trees

1st Grade Kandinsky Circles

Kindergarten Monsters

The students and I read a story, "The day a monster came to school," and discussed the monster's behaviors.  Because the monster was new to school, he did not know how to behave.  The students and I went over "above the line" and "below the line" behavior.

After, we used our imagination and made the monster come to life.  Using tissue boxes, egg cartons, and colored construction paper our monsters were done!
