These cute Mother's Day cards were done by my grades 2/3 and boy did they have a hard time tracing their hands! (Thank goodness I happened to have their lesson scheduled the day before a different lesson w/ my 1st grade students. I had planned a different card, but they were still supposed to trace their hands. NO WAY was that going to happen, I took the time that night to make heart templates for the 1st graders to use instead of the hand tracing.)
I saw this idea on Pinterest. It was a photo and the link went to Tumblr.com, then I couldn't find the original? This always happens when I get into Tumblr, does anyone understand that site?
Inside the card, the classroom teacher had the students glue in their Mother's Day poems that they'd been writing. I love the teachers I work with, they're so appreciative of my art lessons. I am really blessed.
I tried this with a second grade class that had some extra time, thinking it would be super easy, and it was not! Just like you said, I didn't dare try with 1st. It was all in the placement of the thumb...
