Kiddie Arts

My first grade class, my beginners, have a new textbook, and the second unit in the book has a picture of a meadow with a picnic. Some of the vocab words for the unit are tree, lake, cloud, etc., but you can fit a lot more words in if you cover the animals (duck, ant, rabbit) and the food (chocolate cake, banana, grapes) from the pic.

So we talked about the picture and listened to the CD and a few other things, then I assigned each kid (there are 8 in the class now) one or two things to draw on the whiteboard, kind of hoping to imitate the book picture.

Anyway, what you see is the result. (Btw, there are 5 girls and 3 boys in the class, and you can often tell which gender drew what pic. Also, "Annie" is a book character's name.)
