Today is Friday! Today, read If You Give a Pig a Pancake by Laura Numeroff to your class and change your song to "Do You Know the Pancake Man?"....then make “pancakes” as your art activity.
Use the tan circles and yellow square that you had your students cut out yesterday in fine motor. The students will glue the circles to the paper plate, then glue the yellow square on top to look like butter. Once they have completed this portion, they will pour “syrup” on top of their “pancakes”. To make the syrup, mix brown paint and white glue, then funnel it into squeeze bottles, like the ones you use for ketchup and mustard at a picnic. Have your students squeeze the syrup all over the top of the pancakes. The syrup will dry shiny and look like real syrup!
For fine motor, make a batch of pumpkin playdough. Make a batch of pumpkin playdough, adding pumpkin pie spice to the dry ingredients and orange food coloring to the wet ingredients. Your playdough will, of course, be orange, and it will smell like pumpkin pie. You could also make a batch and add cocoa powder to it to make chocolate playdough. Let your students pound, roll, and cut the playdough (they can even use scissors to cut the playdough) and give them cookie cutters to use as well.
