Emma's School Weather Project

For school Emma had to take a cut-out paper doll (given to her by her teacher) and decorate/color it and then put it in a weather scene.  

She chose summer weather and her scene was the beach.  I love to help her with these little projects because she is so creative and gets so excited about doing them.  I helped her cut out her sand and then she cut out water (with wavy scissors), a pink towel, the clouds and a great big sun out of construction paper.  She wanted to make a beach chair so she cut the "cloth" part of it out of green construction paper and then glued it on and drew the rest of the chair.  It made me laugh that she drew a sand castle and then wrote what it was above it (just in case someone didn't know what it was).  And if you look closely- you can see all the details she put on her cut-out doll.  It has flip flops and little toes and butterflies on her swimsuit.
She is even holding a tiny bottle of sunscreen.  They had to include a thermometer with an estimated temperature for their scene.  It was pretty hot at her beach- 90 degrees!
