American Presidents and Kids' Profile Pictures

American Presidents and Kids' Profile Pictures

by Shannon
(USA)

Abraham Lincoln on a penny

We looked at various American coins and observe the profiles of the presidents

Then we turned out the lights on one side of the room and shone a bright flashlight onto the wall. The children took turns coming over to sit in front of the wall and I would trace the shadow of their profile onto black paper with chalk.

Later we cut them out and glued them to a big coin shape.

You could also use a digital camera to take a profile pic, print it, cut out etc. and it would be more accurate, but for my purposes the chalk worked fine.
