The first day of class we discussed printmaking and mono-prints (a print that is only printed once because the next one will be slightly different). We used a 4 x 4 inch piece of bubble wrap to make our prints. Students painted the bubble side with orange, yellow, red, and gold paint. They then stamped it on their paper and repeated this until a piece of 12 x 18 inch white paper was full.
On day two, We used a corn template (I cut out pieces of cardboard for the template) and traced it 8 times on the back of our mono-print paper from the previous class period. We then traced the corn template on a piece of green construction paper as well. We cut out all of the corns. Students then cut the green corn pieces in half vertical wise- this became the leaves. Next, students received a paper plate and we folded it in half and cut the middle out to create a inner-tube shape. Lastly, students glued on the corn pieces. We talked about cardinal directions to help the glue them and then they glued a piece of green paper on each side of the corn.
It can be a wreath or a hat :)
