I steal from pre-school

Yesterday we made autumn trees....even though it's still summer. Maybe I'm jumping the gun, but to me when school starts, summer is over. I don't care what the calendar says. Anyway The tree trunk was cut out of brown scrapbook paper and glued to a pretty piece of scrapbook paper. (can you tell I'm low on construction paper) The kids then used their thumbs to make leaves with red, yellow, and orange paint. Finally they glued on the poem. This idea was stolen right from pre-school. We did this craft one day a year or two ago when I was subbing.

My Thumbprint Tree

My thumbprint means a lot to me.

I used it for my thumbprint tree.

It is my thumb and only mine.

My lovely tree is oh so fine.
