GEOMETRIC REPTILES (integrates mathematics as well as art)
Have the children create a large reptile out of construction paper. Using various colours of construction paper the students cut out geometric shapes and design a pattern on their reptile. Next have the students glue their reptile onto a contrasting coloured piece of construction paper. Examples of reptiles include snakes, turtles, and lizards. |

DINO SKELETON
Use a black or dark blue piece of construction paper for each child. Trace a dinosaur outline onto the paper with chalk. Encourage them to draw it as big as possible. Spray with a little hairspray to set the chalk. Then glue macaroni to build the dinosaur's skeleton. This can also be done using the many pasta shapes that are available. (rigatoni, spaghetti, etc.) |
