assorted items for collage (ie.
fabric, yarn, seeds, etc. longer list available below)
background paper for each child
white glue in bottles or available in margarine
lids or small plastic containers with popsicle sticks to apply
What to do:
pass out papers to children
allow them to choose collage items (these
could be on plates in the middle of the table or at a 'buffet' style table
where they go and pick up scraps on a paper plate)
arrange objects in an interesting way on
paper
use white glue to attach items to paper
label and clean up
lay flat to dry (about
30-60 minutes to let white glue dry)
afterwards, children use sense of feeling
to explore textures on their pages and tell about it
