Newspaper Cat Collage (Art Projects for Kids)

I love the idea and look of making collages with old newspapers and books, but the reality of it brings problems when trying to make consistent supplies for 150 students. Solution? Technology to the rescue with a scanner, printer and parchment paper. (This project is for new kinders so body and head template lines are included in the linked PDF template.)

MATERIALS
• Newspaper Cat PDF Template
• Parchment paper
• Colorful card stock paper
• Black Sharpie
• Glue stick
• Scissors

PREP
Print a Newspaper Cat PDF print on parchment paper for each student

Students cut the body, head and eyes out with a scissors.
The eyes are glued onto the head. The face is drawn with a Sharpie.
Triangles and drawn on the cut out body.
The body is glued to the card stock paper first, then the head on top.
A small rectangle is cut for a color and glued in place.
