Paper Lizard Sculptures

These were a lot of fun.  I did these with 2nd grade, as well as pre-k and kindergarten.  Pre-k and kindergarten took a lot more prep work.  For 2nd grade, I started with large triangles, and showed them how to fold and cut the triangle to make the lizard body.  We focused on color and patterns.  They made their own arms, legs and heads and then we put everything together.  For pre-k and kindergarten, I pre-cut most everything and had them glue and put the lizard together.
