Kindergarteners are finished with the last 2 projects of our prehistoric art unit, clay fossils and cave paintings. This is a really fun unit - we do a lot of imagining!

I absolutely love this clay project! Come see mine.

DeleteLovely art works representing the prehistoric unit in a very creative way.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing cave painting with 3's this week. Do you have any tips? I was just going to make a cave in the classroom with a tarp over a table, trick out a flashlight to look like a torch and let them crawl in there to paint. I have some torn up cardboard for a ground and thought I'd give them charcoal to draw with and mix up some orange/red paint for a handprint.
ReplyDeleteOne year, I found a room that wasn't being used and I taped up all the cave paintings and mixed in a few caveman symbols that I printed from a clip art site. I made a scavenger hunt sheet with all the clip art on it, for them to circle when they found each one. We turned off all the lights in the room and blacked out the windows, then when the students entered, they picked up a clipboard with the checklist, a pencil, and a flashlight (the music teacher had a whole box of flashlights from a music production). It was a lot of fun, but also a lot of work and I will only do that again every few years.
