MAY DAY! MAY DAY!

Tomorrow is the first day of May, so how about a May basket from a lunch bag?
Cut down two sides as show.  Open.  Staple the center strip to make a handle.
*Use the baskets for a popcorn party or for other treats.
*Use the baskets to collect specimens on a nature walk.
*Send home with a letter, shape, numeral, etc. on the side.  Children fill and return the next day.
*Hide magnetic letters or numerals around the room and let the children collect them in their baskets.
*Put flash cards in the baskets and take them home to practice over the summer.
