We did two collaborative art pieces today.  One with hand prints and one with feet prints.  Every child was persuaded to add to each piece.  Collaboration is defined as working with others to create something.  In the preschool classroom, we do collaborative art pieces because it encourages working towards a common shared goal, supports teamwork, helps promote a positive work ethic, and it provides an opportunity for children to engage in conversation with each other.  Throughout the year, we will continue to do many collaboration art pieces.  It will be displayed in the classroom.
