During one of the weeks, we asked the children to go around their classroom to make stamps with the textures they saw. There was one child in particular who spent the entire hour and a half carefully selecting a texture they believed looked like an animal. There was a lady bug, turtle, dog and many more and they drew the animals around the stamps.
I found this incredibly interesting and innovative as I hadn’t seen someone do this yet. I spent a lot of time learning which animals they added and we discovered that the class room was like the wilderness with all the textures.
