4.5 year older siblings work |
When I did this project I had 2 sisters in my class that were approx. 2 years apart in age. I only offered them square or rectangle shapes of various colors and sizes. A good part of the project was learning how to use glue sticks; taking off the caps, putting it on the back of the shape, sticking it in place. On other projects we used liquid Elmer's but with so many classrooms using glue sticks for less mess I thought it would be good to cover that.
Anyhow, look what they made! Both included lots of overlap, but look at how the 2.5 yr. old's work was smashed all the way down in the corner and her sister's was centered and spread out! What an amazing example of development!
