Handprints

I have been working with the Junior Infants on making their handprints with paints. The girls get to choose whatever colours they please from the paints that I have set out. I let them decide how they want to do the project. Some choose to have their whole hand one colour, others want their fingers to be a different colour than their palms. A few girls decided to have each finger and their palms all different colours. One girl opted for stripes, which was a challenge.

The handprints are turning out beautifully but here are a few photographs of the mess the girls made of their hands!

Rebecca wanted stripes:



Malgozata (I am not entirely sure that is spelled correctly, but it is pronounced Margarita) went for solid colours:



Annya and Aoife went for the finger/palm colour variation:
