Thrilling Third Graders~ Hamburgers!


YUM!
Third graders really wowed me with their collage interpretations of colossal hamburgers!

I love the attention to detail and the layering effects they managed to do with paper scraps.

The veggie burger!

Fabulous Fourth Graders~ Humanimals!

Holy cow, were these a blast to make!

Fourth graders spent quite a bit of time searching through magazines for just the perfect eyes, nose, and mouth belonging to either a human or an animal!

Heads and necks were simple backgrounds such as landscapes or flowers. We tried to avoid words as much as possible.

Ears and appendages were so fun to search for. Many of the kids had so many ideas they cut out they were able to make two Humanimals!


This guy below, by far, was my absolute favorite!


So many made teachers and students laugh like crazy in the hallway:)
In the end, I had the kids write a bio about their Humanimal. They could create a name and write about their age, hobbies, career etc.
This one happened to be a dentist!

Feisty Fifth Graders~ Pencil Creatures!

Finally!
Something I can do with all of those "stubbies" I've saved over the years that are too short for the pencil sharpener!
                                       The Fifth graders absolutely LOVED making these!
Such a perfect end of the year project with just some tag board a bit of hot glue and some imagination!
