Sensory Art

This week's group art was student-led. Here are the supplies we had at our disposal:

I pre-selected pages from magazines that had large images of high interest objects, along with cardstock, tissue paper squares (that we had previously made by practicing our cutting skills), markers, stickers, white paint, glue, foam shapes, plastic lacing, hole punch, and scissors. 

Here are the masterpieces that were created!

I handed out the cardstock and the kids wrote their names on the back. We then flipped over our papers. The kids chose the magazine page they wanted to embellish. We put glue "all over" the back of the magazine page and adhered the cardstock. Each child identified and chose a foam block which we dipped into the paint and either stamped or smeared onto their page. I pinched four holes across and six holes down each side of the papers and the kids laced around the edges. They then finished by embellishing with the tissue paper squares and stickers.

This is the end of the spring semester. I'm gearing up for summer camp and many fun and interesting new sensory ideas!
