these owl friends do.
each preschooler cut the eye shapes (since it was O week, this was a good time to practice cutting on a circle line…hard to do, i must add). we discussed shapes and then gave each preschooler a pile of pre cut shapes along with their circles. it was fun to have preschool moms and dads here to help us while ms. vilia is away. this dad-teacher was told he was a “VERY good preschool teacher.”
they used them to create an owl. we included a heart shape in honor of valentine’s day.
it was interesting to give no guidance but just ask them to use them all somehow. it wasn’t long before one little girl said, “hey! i made an owl. everyone just do it like this.”

Hello! I can’t remember how I found your site, but I love it, love your school and use it often for inspiration with my own preschooler (who doesn’t go to school). We tried this craft at home, with varied success. :) Most of the failure being my own. Thanks for the inspiration.
