We made mitten pairs by matching upper and lowercase letters. Then we used the tiny muscles in our hands to squeeze clothes pins to hang them.
We have also been improving our hand strength by using hole punchers to design and create our own sewing cards.
Mrs. Lowe showed us a bunch of different wool mittens and we looked closely and noticed that lots of the mittens had patterns in them.
After looking at lots of examples, we used permanent markers to draw our own mittens. Then we painted them with water colour paints.
What kind of mittens do you wear?
