Hey y'all! Seen any snakes with this warm weather? This was a quick lesson we did to teach our kindergarten about patterns. I used a 12x18 piece of paper and cut out the slinky slanky snakey. The kids used markers...we love the scented markers the best...they last longer. Not kiddin' folks, I did a test about 10 years ago when I was teaching middle school in Fayette County, GA. These markers last way longer than other brands in my opinion...just sayin' for what it is worth. I taught a mini lesson on Elements and Principles of ART and we created our snakes with some coolzy designs! After the kids finished the patterns we chose a fun colored 12x18 background and added the stick on eyes! These will be used for the backdrop at the HCES Kindergarten Circus in May!

Come to find out he has to do a project and he needs to make a paper mache snake. OK, my teaching insticts kick in and I google and search and find all the details for his project. Why do you ask am I telling you this - WELL, I found the COOLEST spot on the web called
