About Me Selfie

“My name is Chloe. I have wavy blond hair. I’m 8 years old.”…Here is a super fun About Me project for Back to School week using Hygloss Products. Great for teaching adjectives and building self esteem.

Teachers have your students create an illustrated selfie of themselves using a variety of craft papers, some markers, crayons, paints, stickers and sequins. Have them glue their handmade selfie to an art board using some glue.

When dried have each student write a bunch of adjectives describing their selves. Making sure they state their name and describe their hair color, favorite food, candy, and personality.

Here’s what you will need to get started:
