The 'Tail' of the Kite
Printable Kite Pattern

Animals have tails. Shirts have tails, People can even wear ponytails. But, do kites have tails? Of course! Your child is bringing home a shape of a typical kite.  Please have him/her carefully cut out the kite.  Then, as a family, work to turn this dull white kite into....

a beautiful kite with a design of their choice and a long patterned tail.
(Sample ideas are listed, but you and your child may have better ones!)

  • paint it
  • fill it in with torn construction paper
  • make a design or picture with tissue paper
  • create a collage using just animal pictures, foods, or letters from magazines

or

an animal of your child's choice that has a tail.
(maybe a monkey or a cat with a long tail, a bunny with a cotton tail, etc...)

Students will be sharing their projects with their classmates .  Then we will hang them  in our classroom and let them 'fly.'

As always, I hope that you enjoy this time with your child!
