 | Print template of choice and color as necessary
|
| Cut out the template pieces.
|
| Fold each piece in half (on the dashed line) so they are all colored on
both the front and the back.
|
| Optional: Put thin cardboard in between the front and back of each
template piece to make them a bit sturdier.
|
| Glue together so the pieces are colored on both sides.
|
|
3D Acorns:
 | Cut on one of the dotted lines of each template piece (only cut as far
as the dotted line goes, not all the way through the piece).
|
| Slide the pieces together, top to bottom  |
| Glue a piece of ribbon, string or thread onto the top (or hole punch a small hole and tie a ribbon
through). If you hole punch, do it through the acorn that is cut from
the bottom, not the one that is cut from the top.
|
|
|
Squirrel:
| punch three holes in the bottom of the squirrel template (one in the
center and one on each edge)
|
| string one acorn through each of the holes so it hangs down from
the hive
|
| punch a hole in the bottom of the middle acorn and string the
fourth acorn through that hole
|
|
|
Optional:
| print as many copies of template 3 as you like and keep adding acorns to the bottom of the other
acorns and the squirrel to make a
very busy fall scene!
|
| 'numbers practice' -- count the acorns
|
| 'colors practice' -- color the background of each bee a different
color.
