Why You’ll Love It
āļøāļøāļøāļøāļø
My 4th graders loved this activity! It helped me get to know a little more about how they think as I walked around and asked them why they chose a specific pattern. I could also connect the leaf shapes to different tree varieties. Plus, my classroom looks amazing now that it is decorated for Fall!

Did this with my 5th graders and they turned out gorgeous!Ā When my third and fourth graders saw them, they begged to do one too.Ā We added glitter along the main lines and that really made them pop!

My students loved using this in art class and spent a lot of time on their leaves. They now have beautiful leaf artwork on the bulletin board.Ā
