Guess who silhouette of our 3's preschool class at Noblesville Methodist preschool. We had shadow day and did this as a fun way to "keep" our shadows. The children sat between a flash light and the black paper while the teachers traced their shadows. Then we cut the out and mounted then on white paper. We added a photo of the child in the silhouette under the red paper to make this a fun game for the parents in our school. Can you guess who? We did all this as we studied ground hogs day!
