Christmas Tree Decorations

Today the children made decorations for our class Christmas Tree.  It was a great fine motor activity.


It also was a great Math activity for some students.  One student told me that she was making a pattern with the beads she was stringing.  This shows me that she is learning to make patterns...an important math skill.  Notice the A B pattern she made, one large square bead, one small round bead all the way down the line.  We discussed the pattern and it was a great introduction to patterns for some students who listened to our conversation and observed her work.
