PeNgUiNs!


A fun topic for first graders is penguins.  Doesn't everyone love penguins?  So we talked a little bit about them: where they live, that they can't fly, how they keep warm, and how fast they can swim. We worked on these right before the Christmas holidays.  I'm not sure why penguins are popular around that time of year?  

Anyway, I did give them some templates to use so that some of them didn't turn out to be too small. We cut and glued all of our parts together.  Next it was time for some details.  We added a line for the earmuffs, and we added snow to our background using cotton swabs and white paint.  The kids really enjoyed creating these cuties!
