This was a quick two class lesson that I used to reinforce cutting and gluing skills while I worked with small groups to finish the butterfly lesson.  I needed to get the butterflies completely finished for the mural, but I wanted to have the other students working on something creative and purposeful.  I'll post the butterfly lesson soon!

I gave my kids bins of the beautiful painted paper scraps from the first and second grade paper weaving lesson and had the kids cut (no drawing first) and arrange them on their paper for about twenty minutes.  Then, I gave them about ten minutes to glue the pieces, get cleaned up, and meet me on the floor.  I did these same procedures for two forty-five minute class periods.  

I was so impressed with what they came up with!  They all wanted to tell me stories about what was happening in their artwork and how they made their pieces come together into a picture.  There were so many beautiful houses, landscapes, animals, and people!  This was a great short lesson that I can see myself doing again when a class gets ahead or when I need students to be able to work mostly on their own for a short period of time.  It worked well for the second semester when students already knew classroom procedures and had prior practice with scissors and glue.
