Step outdoors for the “Creativity Challenge” and turn your backyard into an art studio! What can you do with nature’s weeds, seeds and flowers? Plenty! Follow ideas in this issue to make burr creatures, a bird feeder, hair decorations, rock critters and inventions of your own design. Nature provides the canvas and you create the artist’s studio. Along the way you’ll learn about recycling, ecology and caring for the environment. The birds will appreciate it, too!
In this issue students will:
- Use objects found in nature to create art
- Follow multiple-step written directions
- Complete patterns
- Sequence pictures to match expository text
