After reading Eric Carle's ABC by Eric Carle, introduce the children to the technique of tissue collage. Provide large letters cut from white construction paper or poster board and various colors of tissue paper cut into squares. Show the children how to cover sections of the letter with glue (thin the glue with water and provide foam paint brushes) and then add overlapping squares of tissue paper. When all the letters are complete display in the classroom. This activity could be done in small group.
