I got the cutest insect freebie from The First Grade Parade! One of the main philosophies of our school is student choice...and it makes for GREAT art work! I wanted you to see these amazing ants that my kids made. When I find a cute idea like this, I just change it up by not using the templates provided. I simply put out black and brown paper and gave the kids a few guidelines. They had to make sure their ants had 3 body parts, six legs, and antennae. I LOVE how individual their work turns out when there are no examples for them to look at (or very scaled down examples that I hide when they start working). You can trust them! They can do it!

Talk to you soon!
