Favorite Winter Project!

Next week, we are going to be creating one of my FAVORITE art projects of the year.  The one above is not the actual project, but it is similar.  What I do is take the kids outside and snap a picture of them jumping in the air.  Then they cut themselves out of the picture and glue it onto a paper plat where they make a snowy background.  Last year my students made themselves snowboarding, making snowmen, making snow angels, and so on.  Then you buy  fake snow and add a sprinkle to the plate.  Finally, you cover the plate with saran wrap and you have yourself a personal snow globe!  The kids then cut out a base from paper.  It's so cute!
