Treasure Maps for the Letter X

In preschool last week, we made treasure maps for the letter X.  We used brown paper and drew the outline of an island.  Then, we colored the water and some of the kids even drew pirate ships in the water.  Next, we added details to the island, like rivers, trees, mountains, etc.  When we were all done, we crumpled the paper up to make it look like an old treasure map.  The kids loved it!

Here's a picture of the map that I colored, so that you can see the crumpled effect!

Ugly Cookies for the letter U

We made ugly cookies for snack time when we learned the letter U.
We started with sugar cookies, fresh from the oven.
I let the kids use frosting, jelly, and whipped cream to make
the cookies ugly.


 

Despite looking ugly, they tasted delicious!

But, they were a little messy!

Q for Quilts

Today we made quilts to learn about the letter Q.
I used the paper cutter to cut construction paper into squares. 
Then, I showed the students how to decorate the squares.
When they were happy with their work, I used masking tape on
the back of their quilts to tape them together. 

I really like the way they turned out!
