The children all got to design pictures of donuts before painting, and gluing on “sprinkles”. After they got to take donut themed coloring pages, and a donut treat the next morning.
We were inspired by Eric Carle, and painted "TC Pets" with acrylics. We then used items from nature (sticks, leaves, grass, rocks, acorns, pine needles) and items from around the unit (rags, yarn, legos, paper towels) to create interesting patterns and textures.
The animals chosen for this project either live at or have visited TC, and include Goldie, Classroom Fish #1, Henry, Muddy Chocolate, Oreo, Hershey, Sutter, and Whiskers.
The clients and I discussed favorite music genres, favorite songs, and personal experiences with musical instruments!! We each decorated a music note from out selection, with tissue paper, expressing ourselves through the colors and different textures! We added music lyrics from some of our favorite songs as well.
