Giant Tree and Fall Leaves

This is a work in progress.  I created the big tree, and the kids are currently making leaves and bugs for the trees. Most of the bugs will be from printed papers, Eric Carle style.  Each of my schools has their own tree.  Older students will look at leaves and draw their own, while Pre-K and some kindergarten will have a paper with pre-drawn leaves that they can trace and then color.  Each grade level will create a different kind of leaf: 
- crayon resist with tempera paint
- tissue paper
- oil pastel
- watercolor

 Will update this when it's completed!
