This Mother’s day and for spring, I have made you a fun SPRING FLOWERS practicing activity.
This will be a fun way to review. It will give you a week of easier review where practice will be more FUN leading up to Mother’s Day.
Great!
Here are some ways to use the activity specifically for Mother’s Day!
Not only are you giving your special Mom / or Mom figure, in your life a beautiful homemade craft but it’s made with music and hard work too!! They will love it even more!
Make a card:
Cut out all of the stems for your book level and instrument and practice following the instructions.
Collect enough to put on your card.
Fun surprise - make more flowers that fall out of the card when it’s opened!
Make a program:
Make your card with flowers in the order that you will be playing a special concert for them. Now it’s a card AND a program. Nice work!
Big Poster Board sign or Banner:
If you review 6 or more pieces each day for a week that’s A LOT of beautiful hard working flowers! You might just need to make a big sign or a banner to display them all around your declaration of
“I love you MOM”
“Happy Mother’s Day!”
“Best Mom Ever!”
Is there someone else special?
Don’t forget the other “like moms” in your life! Is there a special relative, friend, neighbor, or teacher in your life that is a special person for you?
I bet they would also LOVE a special spring flower/review song card, concert with a program, sign, or banner too from you!
I would love to see a photo of your finished project! That would make me SO happy too! Send it to hodderchristy@gmail.com
