Using our Knowledge of Shapes- Inspired by Kathy Barbro

Hi Everyone,
Lots of our inspiration for great art projects comes from Kathy Barbro's site - Art Projects for Kids. One of our art activities for this week will be Kathy's paint a cow lesson. In Special Education a lot of time is spent helping kids to name and recognise shapes but we also need to give kids plenty of opportunity to use their knowledge of shapes in creative ways while developing those all important fine motor skills. Kathy has lots of simple drawing lessons attached to her blog which are suitable for all primary age groups. Click on the picture of the cow to access the lesson plan. The Crew will have some amazing cows to post on Wednesday so visit us then !
