They will cut out interesting pictures from magazines and catalogs or draw their own pictures and glue them onto sheets of oaktag. Below each picture they will write the name of the picture. Provide children with the suggested art materials and paper. Place a line across the middle section of the paper to divide it in half. Ask children to glue only one picture or create one drawing in each section.
Younger children can work with pre-cut pictures from magazines.
Assist children in writing or dictating words that relate to their pictures. Cut all the pages in half. Invite children to organize the pictures alphabetically. Younger children will require more adult assistance. Older children can also write or dictate a sentence that describes their picture.
