Sunflower display, originally uploaded by LindaH.
I’m going to do a series of posts highlighting classroom displays for spring over the next week or so. I love this cheery display, it’s an ideal spring display and could be adapted in a number of ways to include class work if used in an older classroom.
All the things on this display were been made by children (oldest is age 4) and their parents. The families worked with the school learning mentors as part of the family learning initiative.
The butterflies and bees can be seen in more detail here:
Julie, a learning mentor said:
The butterflies proved rather addictive and were great fun to make . Originally the learning mentors made them for a craft stall at the school fair.
The butterflies were made from clothes pegs and tissue paper squares. Bee wings were made by drawing round children’s feet on wax paper.
