Summer Shelf Work


As the school year approaches and I have started the change from summer to fall. I wanted to post a few pieces of work that I had on my shelf for the summer.  We studied healthy eating, North America, art and parts of the earth are just a few topic we covered. 
Sorting healthy and junk food. I got this online as a kindergarten work sheet. This sheet wanted the children to cut and paste the items. So I just cut and laminated them so that the work could be re-use each time.


 Some of our North American work was animals of N.A. and landmarks. I purchased the landmarks of the world at Hobby Lobby for $8.99.


 Parts of the earth booklet and the children get to do their own.

Solar System 
The children are able to re-create this Solar System.

 Solar System labeling and coloring work.

Piet Mondrian Art for a Montessori Classroom

We have  studied Piet Mondrian in my classroom in the past and I wanted to share a few of the art pieces we did in our art area. Out of the geometric cabinet, I used a large and a medium sized squares. I found a non-copyrighted picture on Google. All I did was type in Piet Mondrian free art for kids, then I just picked one that I thought would work the best. I laminated the picture to make it last longer. The children are able to take the tray with everything on it to the table and complete the work.

Two squares and/or rectangles different sizes
Colored pencils: black, yellow, red, blue
Paper cut in half (8 1/2 by 5 1/2)
Ruler



I found the large blank art piece by Piet Mondrian on Google under Mondrian color pages. Then I just looked up the art piece, colored it accordingly with colored pencils, and I laminated it. I put everything on a tray for the child to have everything available to them.



On another tray, I had primary colored paint and different sized strips of black construction paper. The children able to create their own version of a Mondrian.
