This is a LOT of prep work for that many students and a LOT of paper. <br />I changed the size down to 9"x12" and instead of circles we just used the squares that I had already cut. <br />I have one 40 minute block with them a week. My K students had trouble just using a glue stick, here at the beging of school, so I did not want to incorporate too many steps (tracing, cutting) that would limit their progress. <br />We put 4 large squares on our paper, one in each corner and then went down in size as the lesson shows. At the end students put one square in the center and did the same thing. <br />They looked great and we managed to finish in one class period.<br />BrandyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381120504894150431.post-59675760002288517202009-09-14T15:59:09.618-07:002009-09-14T15:59:09.618-07:00Hi Lucy (so glad you have a name!),

Have you used Crayola's "construction paper crayons"? As far as crayons go, they are pretty great. All of the colors show up, even on dark colors of paper. Just thought I'd mention it, because they are so easy and the kids really like them!Lucynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381120504894150431.post-88819179783697845302009-09-09T19:52:41.169-07:002009-09-09T19:52:41.169-07:00Hi Anonymous,
