Penguin Coloring Craft
My build a penguin coloring craft and writing prompts are the perfect, no prep winter activity for 1st and 2nd grade. 3 templates ensure that every penguin activity on your January bulletin board is unique! Post your penguin crafts and prompts in the hallway to make an engaging winter display.
What’s Inside My Winter Penguin Paper Craft
If you’re racing to figure out what cute project to quickly put up in the hallway for after winter break, look no further. Students can complete the penguin craft in one class period. And you can use the accompanying writing prompts to post alongside your projects.
Basically, each child receives a copy of the penguin template. Then, they color everything, cut out the parts, and glue it together. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
This craftivity also comes with a PowerPoint with step-by-step pictures and simply written directions for young children. Use it for either whole group or small group instruction. Or, assign it to students via Google Classroom, Canvas, etc. so they can work independently.
Are you going to be absent and your substitute won’t have access to technology? No problem! Use the 1-page all-in-one step-by-step picture directions. Just print it out and include it with your sub plans. And then do nothing. Yes, nothing, because I’ve done it all for you!
