Today we are going to make a jingle bell out of paper. Students trace from a tagboard pattern, the top portion of the bell on the black paper. Cut the top portion of the bell out. Assist children as necessary in cutting the opening at the top. Lay the top portion to the side.
Students trace the bottom portion of the bell onto tagboard.
Provide a pattern to trace. Cover the bottom portion of the bell with aluminum foil. Glue the top portion of the bell to the portion covered with aluminum foil. Attach a red ribbon bow to the top of the bell. Suggested Follow-Up Activity Read the book The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg.
