I have been trying to figure out which Mother's Day Gift
I am going to make with my students.
I have so many past ideas that it is hard to choose.
I think I am going to take flower pots and have the kids use their fingertips
to make flowers on them, and then plant some flowers in them.
One year I had the kids bring in an old shoe and we planted flowers in their shoe. The moms loved them.
Another idea I used in the past is recipe cards.
We made cute little bundles of recipe cards for mom.
The top recipe card is the "Recipe for a Happy Child",
which is a super cute verse that any MOM would love.
It is placed on the top of a stack of cutesy, blank recipe cards and tied with a ribbon.
Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy as my class would say.
I have used this with preschoolers, kindergarten, and even second graders.
To add to it, I have the students write or dictate their favorite recipe to me.
Or
Have them write about MOM's cooking. (mine would be lack of cooking)
They are hilarious!
If you need a quick activity here is a preview of my recipe cards. I have sets of both girl and boy clip art.
I have also included 2 different writing activities that can go along with the cards.
I just posted this on my Teacher Pay Teacher Store for $2.00.
