Springtime Tree

Since it finally feels like the beginning of spring weather, we have been working hard in in our class this week sprucing up our classroom tree.  We learn that in springtime, trees blossom with beautiful flowers, so we first worked to remove some of the dried out pine needles, by breaking them off.

 

Then we used tissue paper and liquid watercolors to make beautiful paper flowers.  When they dried, we folded the flowers, attached them to branches to wave around, and stuck them to our tree.
