OCTOBER Theme: Creepy Creatures
10/14
While being committed to a primarily black and white color scheme and using their imagination to consider all the “friendly” monsters they may have seen in books and movies to prompt how their monster will “look”, children create monsters using rubbings to create the textured paper and then cutting out shapes to “create” their texture monsters.
10/28
Prompting children to investigate “insects and bugs in the garden” using stock images, images from magazines, insect and bug themed books and exploring various collage materials, children draw, cut, arrange, embellish and create their own insects and bugs around a garden theme.
