Colors & Shapes

Earlier this week, we explored color and shape using paint chips.

Each child was given a piece of contact paper, a pair of scissors, and a wide variety of paint chips. They were then free to create their very own mosaics!

It was awesome to see how the students used their fine motor skills to cut different shapes out of their paint chips... circles, lines, squares, diamonds and triangles.



All of the boys and girls were so thoughtful about their color choices and placement of their shapes on their mosaics.

The mosaics turned out beautifully and are now hanging from the large sticks in our classroom!
