Today was a special day for my youngest students! The two Early Explorer (pre-school) classes have Music and Art back-to-back on Fridays and today, my colleague Alicia and I collaborated on a project involving our student's parents.
The students made a special invitation for their parents, inviting them to participate in both the Music and Art classes today. After attending the Music class, the students and their parents came to Art class, where the students taught their parents how to make a Magic Hat.
After I read the book The Magic Hat by Mem Fox to the whole group, students took their parents to their table and showed them show to cut a straight line on the pencil mark, how to use a pencil to make curls, and how to fold paper into zig-zags. All these skills were combined to create a wonderful Magic Hat!
