Presidents Day

Lucky us! Our district has the week off for mid-winter break, but we were able to squeeze in a few fun activities for President's Day and will continue our unit the week after next.

These are our Abe Lincoln masks! I made a hat pattern, cut a paper plate in half and the students cut out the middle. Then we spread a layer of glue on the plate and pressed on some of that crinkly gift bag stuffing! If you don't have stuffing, you could glue down torn paper or sponge-paint the beard. Glue a large wooden craft stick to the back to be used as a handle. Next year, I will add some facts about Lincoln or a cute poem to the hat!
