Name Art

It's the first week of school and I need simple activities!  So today we did name art.  It's great for kids to practice their name and fine motor skills.  It took quite some time which was great since we haven't started curriculum yet and need lots of things to do!

I wrote the students' names and gave them bowls of construction paper squares.  They had to tear the paper into small pieces and glue them over their name.  They loved all the colors and learning to use the glue sticks!

They turned out so cute!  A couple were difficult to read, so I retraced their name on top of the pieces of paper.  Overall, it was a great first week activity!
