Spelling & Art

This week with Holly's spelling words she created a fall sun flower art project. It turned out really cute and was a fun way to practice her spelling words just one more time. It is nice to enjoy activities like art or a game with the mundane work of weekly spelling words, she really enjoys it and it appears to be effective.

On 12 yellow flower petals I wrote her spelling words out, she copied them. Then she glued them around the center of her flower - in retrospect I should have had her alphabetize them... maybe a different time. Once glued down she created a stem with leaves and added. The final touch was adding painted sunflower seeds by adding dots.

This was super simple to create, however she LOVED it!
