Snow, Ice, Rain, Holidays, winter, Children's Art Projects

So we all have these yucky days- Here in the South it's warm and rainy. Some of us are wishing we had the snow! Either way the children are having indoor recess activities. What to do with children hyped up about Elf on the Shelf and no outside time to run that extra energy off? Here is an idea- Group the desks in groups of four. Say you have 24 students, 6 groups of four. At one group set out crayons. Another will have colored pencils, A third will have water-based markers. A fourth will have colored chalk. A fifth will have oil pastels. A sixth group will have regular pencils or permanent markers or watercolor paint markers. You get the picture- different drawing supplies at each group. Give one piece of white copy paper to each child. Have the class draw a holiday themed drawing on the paper but only spend 5 minutes at each group. Teachers control the rotation so that it is not a mad house of kids running to their favorite group. display the drawings for all to see how different they all are. This activity lasts about 40 minutes. Mizz Mac

Happy thanksgiving! I hope all of you have had a good one! I spent time with my family! Anyone going to Black Friday sales?? I'm not. I'm going on the pottery walk on Saturday.
