stART: Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

This week we read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault

This story is a classic and of course we've read it many times, but we hadn't read it lately. So when I found Buzz reading it to Boo one morning last week I decided it would be fun to make our own letter coconut trees.

Buzz and Boo cut their tree trunks, leaves and coconuts out of constructions paper and glued them on cardstock. Then they glued on foam letters.

stART: The Rainbow Fish

This is my first time making a stART post! We read The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister, then Buzz and Boo made their own rainbow fish.

I drew the outline of a fish on blue cardstock and Buzz and Boo colored their fish in with crayons.

Then they painted over the crayon with water colors.

Once the paint had dried they added eyes, glue and glitter and tin foil "scales".
