Grade 1/2 Monster Hands

Tracing a Hand Can Make a Monster

The grade 1/2’s are a big class, full of enthusiasm and energy. The idea that they could draw their own creatures/monsters using the outline of their hand as a starting point caused more than a few faces to light up with ideas.  I demonstrated how the hand could be in different positions to make the monster and suggested that they add details from there.

This was a simple and fun project using pencil crayon; thanks to Briargrove Elementary Art Page for this idea!  I think many of them are simply … wonderful.
