Cut & Paste Popped Corn On the Cob

      This simple little fall project is perfect for preschoolers. Teachers can download and print the templates that I have included below of a corn husk and cob. Transfer the patterns to heavy poster board to make stencils for young students to trace around. Select pale brown and yellow construction paper to create a corn cob like the one pictured on the right.

• Give each student a number two soft lead pencil to trace around the stencils with.
• Then they can cut out their husk and cob and paste the two together.
• Next, give each child a small white glue bottle and a fist full of popped corn to attach onto their construction paper corn cob.
• Let the project dry and pass around some additional popcorn for them to snack on!
