Sheep Art

I was extremely excited to teach this spring sheep art lesson that I found at artprojectsforkids.org. I knew my students would be up for the challenge of learning how to draw sheep. They turned out even better than I expected and we had a great time creating the drawings.
I helped out by demonstrating how to draw the sheep step by step.

Awesome work!

A few finished products!

Spring Where are You?

We are still waiting for spring in Manitoba and it doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon. Even though we are still dressing for the colder weather, my first graders and I have decided to work on spring activities anyway.
I found this cute poem about the month of March and we talked about the lion and lamb analogy. Although it was cold, we still had many "lamb" weather days!
