TPT "Make your Masterpiece" Challenge

The next challenge in the #tptsellerschallenge was to create our masterpiece! It was a fun challenge and I am thankful for them allowing a week and a half for this one! I needed the extra time! My think time alone was 1-2 days.

I decided to extend an earlier freebie that I have in my store and make it last all year long.
Here is the description of my 102 page masterpiece. I will definitely be using this in my classroom and hope you get to too!
  

Here are more cutting AND tracing activities that grew from my cutting honeybees activity that is currently available in my store for free!

This activity is intended to provide children with an opportunity to practice their cutting skills, tracing skills, and demonstrate understanding of the concepts start and stop.
Additionally this will provide opportunities to practice some executive functioning skills such as task initiation, self-regulation, and self monitoring (they have to stop themselves from cutting through the pictures as well as monitor where they are on the line).

It is easy to get into the habit of providing children feedback and sometimes we forget to ask the child how they thought they did. To help with this, I have included reflective questions to ask your child/student after cutting or tracing so they can evaluate their own work.

All the pages are the same so you can use these to monitor cutting and tracing progress throughout the year. Keep a beginning, mid, and end of year in the child's portfolio to show to parents/guardians.

You will receive color and black line pages consisting of two cutting pages, and two tracing pages. The first has easier lines to follow and the second has more challenging lines. All pages are ready to be printed and used right away. Low prep time and ready to use!

Have your children create their own colors and color in the pictures on the black line copies.

You will receive the following in cutting and tracing:
Beginning to snip
Back to school
Apples
Pumpkins
Turkeys
Presents
Snowmen
Valentine Cupcakes
St. Patrick's Day
Chicks
Flowers
Fun in the Sun
Patriotic

You can also make this a fun activity to use with puffy paint or glue to provide raised lines. I hope you enjoy using this as much as I did making it!

Thank you!
