Tracing and Painting Are Great for Kindergarten on a Friday!
Have a little Fun Friday session to help your students wind down the week and review some of their learning activities. You'll integrate plenty of learning opportunities - but they'll just think it's all fun and games!
There are hundreds of stations you could set up in independent-learning style activity centers - here are just a few:
- draw and make with paper scraps and glue
- choose anything to read from the class library
- play some math games you’ve taught through the week in a relaxed, independent learning center
- play some music and have a dance
- choose a coloring page to color or trace
Tracing and painting are always favorites too! Use some pages from one of my printable packs or the Pond Coloring Club.
Tracing and painting:
- help develop fine motor skills
- require children to use their small muscles, which helps develop fine motor skills
- helps develop creativity and self-expression
- allows children to express themselves creatively and explore their imaginations
Tracing and painting are both fun and engaging activities that children enjoy. This makes them a great way to keep children learning and engaged on a Friday afternoon or in a Fun Friday session. This puppy is from the Coloring Club and after tracing your children can add extra patterns with crayons and paint it for display.
Other puppy themed pages that will delight your children on a Friday include a word wall page and drawing page:
