Remember that flag from my post of March 5th? I put that flag on tagboard, then each child had to tear red, white, and blue strips into "finger tip size pieces" and glue them to the template. This "mosaic" idea has always been among the best ideas for strengthening fine motor skills. To finish, we wrote the state pledge on the back.Additional activities included:
* playing Texas bingo
* watching a short video about the Battle of the Alamo
* learning to dance the Cotton-Eyed Joe and Chicken Dance
Cute!
