Terry Fox Flags

This year, I learned that waving flags during the Terry Fox Run/Walk totally elevates the experience. It doesn't really matter if it's raining or cold or if someone fell and scraped their knee because......WE HAVE FLAGS! They bring automatic joy.

WHAT YOU NEED:

• white cardstock

• wooden dowel

• hot glue & sticks

• paint stick markers

• Terry fox cut-outs

• Stickers/Magazine cut-outs

• glue stick

• pom poms

• ribbon

HOW TO MAKE:

1. We did this with an entire class. And so, in preparation, I hot-glued a pom pom to the top of each wooden dowel and tied on a ribbon, too!

2. Provide a piece of white cardstock to each student. Have them decorate the background first with paint stick markers. These are vibrant (yay!) and quick dry (double yay!).

3. Students can decorate their flags as they wish, using mini Terry cut-outs, stickers, relevant words or phrases, etc.

I'm starting to think I need more flags in my life. Santa Clause parade flags? Happy long weekend flags? The tooth-fairy-is-coming-tonight flags?! OHHHH the possibilities!

Happy creating!
