Phoenix has two seasons - summer and summer's coming. It's no wonder that kids in here find difficulty discerning the seasons. Yesterday's art group began with a mini-discussion on the four seasons. Even though autumn is approaching most of the northern hemisphere, the leaves don't fall here until November - if they ever leaf leave the tree.
No Time for Flash Cards gave us the fodder for our falling foliage fun. [Can you say that 5 times, fast?!] It gave the children a great scissor work out. Mr. Intensity has drastically improved his skills in recent months.
Next they drew on coffee filters. I gave each of them 4 filters stapled together to make a "book." Mr. Intensity decided to title his: Crazy Book.
Then they colored on a single filter and we turned them into butterflies, complete with pipe cleaner antennae, googly eyes, and a pom pom nose.
