Snowmen At Night





Kindergarten students love the book Snowmen At Night.  I love it, too!  We read the book and looked at all of the beautiful illustrations before beginning our own version of a snowmen.

Students traced circles and then cut them out, showing just how well they have learned to use the scissors.  Students were reminded that "a dot does a lot", when using glue. Shapes were glued and care was taken so that they were slightly overlapping.  Next students cut out their noses and glued these onto the top of the head.  This makes it appear that the snowmen are looking up.  

Details were added, such as eyes and buttons, using markers. Students chose two contrasting colors and began to cut rectangles that were glued side by side to make a scarf. Snow flakes were added as a finishing touch, using white oil pastels.  The results show a lots of personality and are quite fabulous!
