Coffee Filter Trees

I had to share these incredibly easy fall trees that my Grade One class made!
Students used eyedroppers to drip liquid water color paints onto coffee filters. Don't be stingy with the paint as they will be brighter. You could also use washable markers to colour the filters and then spray with water. But again, make sure they fill the filter with lots of colour!
When dry, they cut out this fabulous tree template. You could easily use something a lot less complicated as it was a challenge for a few of them. However, you could hear a pin drop during cutting time due to the extreme need for concentration!!
These look so great in my window and it makes me smile every time I walk into my room and see them!
