This is an annual art project by Mrs. B at my main school (no, it's not me). But I thought I'd pass it on as it always turns out so nice and the kids have a great time.
Thanks Mrs. B for letting me post this one!
MATERIALS REQUIRED:
- large sheets of paper
- liquid tempera paint
- powdered tempera paint
- popped popcorn
- glue
- scissors
PROCEDURE:
On your large sheet of paper trace around a plate or lid in the middle of the paper.
Paint in a stem and a few leaves.

Put the lid on or hold a plate over top the container and give it a good shake. At school we have 4 large ice cream tubs with lids that we use every year.

When the painting has dried fill traced circle with glue and add popcorn until filled. Let the glue dry and then post on your bulletin board!
