Open House Project: Mini Me's Poster People
Poster People are a perfect fit for my Open House every year. I send home an outline on tagboard of a head, torso, and arms with each students to create their own mini me. I encourage them to make their person resemble themselves as much as possible and it is absolutely amazing to see each student's uniqueness come out in this project. And best yet...the night of Open House you'll have the quietest, cutest class sitting at their desks ready to learn! What more can I say?

love these! anyway you can share templates of people?
ReplyDeleteI used oversized pieces of tagboard tracers.
ReplyDeleteI have no file on my computer to share.
These are adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you attach them? To the desk, chair?
ReplyDeleteI use masking tape to stick them to the chairs. Sometimes I need to use a ruler to support the heads.
ReplyDeleteAmazing idea! I am sharing it on my blog. I plan to try it. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have an open house this week and these would be a hoot. I have some old card board boxes that might work perfectly. I have a vision of what it'll look like. Now to make it reality.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. I will try to have my third graders do it. COOL!
ReplyDeleteWould you mind sharing the letter you use explaining the project?
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea! Do you make the template by having them lye on the tag board or trace them standing with a light on them? Thanks, \
