Make a Construction Paper School Bus
1. Using the template trace the bus onto yellow paper. Cut two small circles as well for the center of the wheels.
2. Trace the wheels and windows onto black paper. Cut a black strip too.
3. Decorate the windows of the bus, if desired.
4. Glue the windows, wheels, and strip on to the bus.
5. Finish decorating. Depending on your child’s level they can write the word SCHOOL on the bus.

Given the opportunity to be creative kids are often amazing.  My older daughter drew the driver of the bus with a steering wheel.  She also made sure her bus had lots and lots of polka dots!
