Autumn Tree Tissue Paper Collage



To go along with our autumn leaf rubbings and prints, we decided to make a tree from tissue paper. It's easy to make a brown piece of tissue paper much larger than a glued trunk shape and push it into the glued tree to make the illusion of bark. Students tore tissue paper into small pieces: yellow, red, oranges, and greens, before gluing them into the branches. Some choose only one color while some chose many. Some students had leaves falling from the limbs, or on the ground, while others kept them neatly in the tree tops. This is a quick crafty lesson about fall and there's enough wiggle room that each child's finished product can look different from their neighbor's. Happy Fall y'all!
