December and OWLS!
 |
| First Grade 1 painted papers with tempera paints and made lots of TEXTURES! |
 |
| The next week the students could use any color paper and create an owl collage |
 |
| Here are the trays I use to glue our owl collages... we use Elmer's Glue mixed with water..I am tired of the glue sticks not sticking, this way of gluing these heavy papers works very well, I highly recommend it! |

My theme has been Africa this year. Here are some of the projects the students are working on:
