Kindergarten Christmas Trees!

We did sorting, comparing, patterns, and measuring today in art class!  Whew! These kindergartners did a fabulous job creating  these stacked Christmas Trees! I had pre-cut strips of paper on their tables so they could select, compare, and measure which strips come next in the pattern. We glued stars at the top and hole-punched dots for ornaments.

 

You could either do the project along with them and show them each strip to glue down, or you can do what I did and show the process first and then then see who can do it. This time of year, I start to let go of some of the control to evaluate their skills. Either way you teach it, these will look great in a Christmas display!
