Scarecrows
By Em

Clip to ScrapBook   
I always do scarecrows around Halloween, we do a poem:
Scarecrow, scarecrow
How scary can you be?
You scared the ________ (racoon, crow, ?)
but you didn't scare me!

There is a third animal but at the moment
I can't remember it. First we learn it, then I bought a scarecrow had from the dollarstore and the animals we needed stuffed or garden decorations- also from dollar store and we take turns acting it out and making our scarecrow faces. After that we make a class book, where I have the verse typed up with a line for the animal they write the animal they want and illustrate the picture.

Make

a scarecrow art activity they make a face and a hat then we add staw (you can get it at craft stores) coming from under the hat.

If I think of other things we do I will add them- I love doing scarecrows they are a lot of fun.
