New Preschool STEAM Activity!


This Week's Preschool STEAM Activity:
 Cave Drawings

Before there were stores, paint was made by crushing rocks  and minerals. Cave artists used chalk, clay and earth. Your child can make a cave drawing and take it home.

This helps your child learn...

· Art skills (drawing with chalk)

*Ask for this activity at the ELC desk. When you and your child complete it, your child gets a sticker.


Dibujos De La Cueva





 Antes había tiendas, pintura fue hecha por trituración de rocas y minerales. Artistas de las cavernas utilizan tiza, arcilla y tierra. Su hijo/a puede hacer un dibujo de la cueva y llevarlo a casa.

Ésto ayuda a su niño a aprender… 


· Arte (dibujo con tiza)


*Pregunte por el actividad en el escritorio ELC. Cuando usted y su hijo/a lo completa, su hijo/a recibe una calcomanía.
