Arts Integration at Home – Recipe for Me Part 1

Posted Monday, May 4, 2020

Today’s activity is about you! Recipe for Me is a fun, thoughtful, and creative way to share who you are. This activity is shared in two parts. Part One is the brainstorm and writing half and Part Two is the movement and performance half. The directions for the activity are shared in two ways – for caregivers/teachers and for kids who can read so they can do the activity independently. This activity is recommended for students in second grade and above.
