Our genre focus in February was biographies. In addition to writing their autobiographies, the kids made these self potraits. I had a parent trace their sillouettes and then the kids used magazines to cut out pictures and words representative of their lives. Check out a few other examples under the Art Gallery tab.
Hey Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog. What great ideas! I just posted a link to this post because I think it would make a great end of the project as well. Check out the post here if you'd like: http://pattonspatch.blogspot.com/2011/04/fun-new-blog-end-of-year-craft-idea.html
Thanks for your idea about the address labels on my post by the way. So simple... love it!

Just found your blog through a post on Teaching Blog Addicts. I absolutely love the autobiography art! Can't wait to do it with my students.
