"Where is the Leaf" Book
October 9th, 2009

We made a book called “Where is the Leaf” to practice words like on, in, over, behind and under.

First Hailey colored the pictures.

We also practiced some patterns:

Pretty Fall Leaves
October 7th, 2009

These leaves are so simple and they turn out so pretty.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Here’s what you’ll need: coffee filters, markers and a spray bottle.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Cut the coffee filters into leaf shapes.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Color the leaves using some fall colors.  The more you fill up the leaf with colors the better it will turn out.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Put some water in your spray bottle and lightly spray the leaf.  The colors will run together creating a very pretty look.

Leaf Rubbing
October 6th, 2009

Our theme last week was fall.  The first activity we did was some leaf rubbing.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper, leaves, crayons with paper removed, tape, scissors and white computer paper.

Tape a leaf to the table and then put the white computer paper on top of the leaf.  Add a couple of pieces of tape to the paper to keep it in place.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Rub the side of the crayon over the spot where the leaf is.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Cut out the leaf rubbing and glue it onto a piece of fall colored construction paper.
