Grade 2
Needs: Scissors, Pencils
Large construction paper on table 5 for body.
Small cut construction paper in box under smart board.
Be mindful of what we are doing with the paper! Can another person use it?... then it should go back in the box.

How would I create a symmetrical insect?
Learning how to fold, draw and cut..... to create symmetrical shapes.
1. start with the body - long and lean or short and wide
2. create the head - circular, square, triangular, organic
3. add in details - color patterns, horns, antennas, wings, stingers, pinchers, fangs, dots, stripes.... big eyes ... ALL IN PAPER! NO DRAWING!
4. save the legs for last (Mrs. Tonn will cut legs for everyone)
No glue until everything is placed out on the white paper and you have the entire insect symmetrical & well- organized the way you would like it.
