Silly Spider Art Project {free download}

 

007

We made these fun spiders last week and they turned out just precious.

I actually made these 2 years ago and we mounted them on lime green paper.. I did not have any large green paper so we used this pinkish-purple paper.

They would even be cute without the background paper.

Maybe on a big spider web!

Download the patterns below. I print them on white paper from my computer then run them on construction paper on our school’s copier.

I totally flaked out this week and did not take but a few pictures of my kids.. WHAT?!? I had my camera everyday but it was a crazy week..

I did get these 2 pictures of this ordinal word center we did. .. it was a big hit. I moved these cards into our pocket chart basket.. so now they can use them anytime they are given permission to use the pocket chart. That way.. they can be used over and over until the end of October.

You can buy my Halloween centers on TpT ..

I obviously killed my beloved home laminating machine.. it won’t heat up { oh no! } so I am off to shop around for a replacement! I cannot live without it!

We are out of school tomorrow. (yea!! for Columbus Day!) I am so excited for an extra day! Hope you have a great weekend!

Money Posters & Bumble Bees


Two days down this week… and
I am TIRED!
Wiped Out.
Seriously, I am so worn out when school is over all I want to do is take a nap.
I know it is like this every year.
Okay, enough complaining! HA!

These new snazzy dazzy money posters I made stirred up lots of questions last week when I posted them. I finally remembered to take some close up pictures today so I could share about them.

Not that there is a lot to say….

They are made using colored poster board, money cut-outs and scrapbooking paper.

{I use a TON of scrapbooking paper in my room!!}
004

I used my cricut machine to cut the letters. The font is LDJ Martian Mania.
005

I glued the letters and money on the poster board, drew a cloud around each one and laminated them.
That’s all!


I also wanted to show you these fun {and crazy looking} bumble bees we made. They turned out pretty cute for a first time art project.

Spider Art Project



These are precious spiders.
They are made out of styrafoam cups, yarn, and pipe cleaners.
My mom who teaches with me taught art for a few years and she made these with my first graders.

After they were finished we sprayed them with the fake snow. (the snow that comes in the can)
