skills - fine motor, counting, identification of
'small, medium, and large
materials - construction paper,
glue stick, scissors, paper plate, ruler, markers or
crayons
Using a ruler, draw cutting lines
on the paper plate, dividing it into thirds. The
thirds must not be the same size, however. You will
need a small, medium and large section. Each portion
should look like a large triangle with a rounded
bottom.
Have you child identify the
largest section, decorate it with markers and glue,
point side up, onto the construction paper. Repeat
this process with the medium sized piece, gluing it
above the large piece. Complete the tree with the
smallest section glued above the medium portion.
