Guest Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 i'd like to share an activity idea we did a few weeks ago. i'm sure lots of you have done this many times but i wanted to share!!! we took a paper plate made an arrow out of card and secured in the middle of the plate with a split pin. we then sectioned the plate into 4 raining, sunny, windy and snowing, the children then used lots of materials to decorate their chart, cotton wool for snow etc. well after a couple of weeks the parents started coming in saying that the children are still using their charts every day and we were told by one parent that her child was walking down the road and the weather changed from raining to sunny and she couldn't wait to get home to change her chart!!! this has led us to thinking about doing another chart for days of week soon!!!!
Guest Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Thank you for this idea, I am always looking for simple craft activities to do and this will be great. Paula

laura Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks for the idea. We usually have a weather topic after half term and will have a go at this with them!
