This was a quick activity to help the children become more familiar with the flag from United States of America - since its Independence Day tomorrow...
 |
| to make the stripes we took a roller with stripes on it (OK they were a little wriggly) and rolled it across the page... the aim was to do this in rows - but this is not always so easy for the younger children as its more about just rolling... so it was left as a process for them to listen and do if they wanted otherwise open to interpretation so to speak |
 |
| a flag had been made before to give them an idea of what the American flag looks like |
 |
| the stamps were made from bottle tops with 3D star stickers stuck on, simple but rather effective |
 |
| there were different methods for making the stars - holing the edges of the lids or as this 2 year old worked out putting the lid down and then pressing the middle to get the pressure right to create a star (the red dot on the star came from his fingers tracing the red lines and then pointing to his stars - plenty "twinkle twinkle" being sung here... |
