Dear Art Friends,
We at Oakdale Montessori really enjoyed this project as it touched on a part of our curriculum. With our theme being the Universe. We’ve been learning about all the planets and we were able to zoom in to show the children that there is more than just one continent that they live on, on the planet earth.
We showed them that the earth is round with our Continent Globe and showed them how to read it as a map on a 2D surface.
With this we showed the children that the only way to get to our “Dear Art” friends is by an airplane or by ship and that is how we will be sending our art.
The children pointed out where we lived and then where their friends are.
Hope you enjoy our art as much as we enjoyed making it.
With love from
Oakdale Montessori
