dot to dot art

I follow several educational preschool blogs and often find great ideas. Here is one I found recently and we tried it today. It was simple, but creative! First I put sticker dots on card stock paper, then the children connected the dots to make shapes, and lastly added more detail to the shapes. They created some great pictures and we kept them for their portfolio books. A great activity to help children learn how to draw shapes. 
This idea came from www.teachpreschool.org
