I Like Myself - Self Portraits

 I LIKE MYSELF BECAUSE I'M ME! We will forever love this book... 

READ: You can explore and engage your students with this book during story time.

IMAGINE: Your students will bring this book alive through their eyes and create their very own self portrait.

CREATE: 

Materials: watercolor paper (whatever size you desire), permanent marker, paintbrush, watercolors, pipe cleaners (optional), hole puncher (optional)

I  pre-traced the circle for the face, neck and the shirt with a pencil to give my students a guide. The students were given permanent markers to trace the face and to create the other parts of the face.

PAINT:

After the tracing process was complete, the students were given paintbrushes and watercolor paint to complete their masterpiece. 

We recommend this project for ages 4 and up. Have fun as you read, splash and have a BLAST!
