State Sybols

We also learned a lot about our state symbols. I created a Power Point, but I'm not sure if I can post the attachment from my iPad so I will have to look into that. I am still new to blogging, so I will figure it out eventually.


We learned about the Texas Flag, state mammal, state tree, state flower, state song, and much more! They loved it all! I wished I would have gotten more pics of the things we did but below are a few pics of the blue bonnet. They used paint and their thumb prints for the petals.

Since this was Texas week, we had the students take home a Boot to decorate however they wished. I read a book called "Armadillo Rodeo"! The kids loved it just as much as I did! ;) After the story the students described their boots on paper, but without telling each other which boot was theirs! For example, my boot is smooth, shiny, and colorful. The students had to guess whose was boot whose! The kids really enjoyed this because they really had to use good describing words so their classmates could figure it out without giving away too much!
