Totally Squares - Process over Product

Fun masterpieces built from continued tool exploration - my lesson was inspired by the book, Perfect Square by Michael Hall. It's really all about the process with Pre-K and I am starting to really embrace this philosophy - what a feeling of freedom, not just for me but how special and meaningful for the kids! We created these over two class sessions.....


Day #1 - random sizes of colorful paper cut into squares and 3x3 origami paper squares, glue sticks, oil pastels. The kids experimented with ripping, crunching and folding the squares before gluing and moving on to the pastels.....


Day #2 - old book pages cut into squares, glue colored with liquid watercolor and glitter, paint sticks. The kids worked on tearing the book pages and used the colored glue to not only adhere, but to add colorful blotches of color, then they got to work with paint sticks!
