Long Time Coming... O Week!

Sorry about waiting so long to post.  That is the busy life of a teacher I suppose! (:  Anyway, for O week we made O paintings and we talked about what an octopus was.  We practiced writing letter O and came up with words that started with letter O.


Using paint, students created an octopus.  They got to choose which color they liked best.  They painted their hand and keeping their fingers all together you press down to make the body.  Then you repaint the fingers and use the fingers to make the legs.  They turned out really good!



We also did "O" paintings. Using the letter O they had to create masterpieces.  You can see the flowers and clouds in this one! A lot of them had trouble with this concept of just using an O to make pictures.  As long as I saw some sort of O in the painting in the end, it was fine!
