With Kinders, I find one or two day lessons best because that keeps their attention and their LOVE for learning alive and well!
This is one of those wonderful one day lessons that they can take with them when they are finished! Instant gratification!! :)
I found this one PINTEREST of course. Here's the link to the original! Miss Kindergarten Polar Express Trains
First we studied trains by looking at what trains look like and what they need to move. Together, we then, drew the railroad track and the parts of the train using white chalk pastels on black construction paper. We started with the engine car. We then added other shapes to the back until the train ran off the paper. We wanted it to look like the train kept going and going. Then we added wheels and details. If they wanted snow and a moon or two, they did. Some even added snowmen complete with a hat and scarf! The last step was filling the train cars in with colored chalk of their preference. This created a pattern! :)
My littles loved this project!!!
Shapes, patterns, colors, chalk medium
