After reading about Pete the Cat, we made cat glyphs. You may be wondering, "what is a glyph?"
A glyph for kids uses pictures as a way to gather and depict data. Glyphs are often theme-related and artistic. When they are completed, the scene or picture can be compared to the glyph’s legend--the part that tells what each shape or picture stands for--to help you glean information about the person who created the glyph.
Our Pete the Cat Glyph legend is the following:
How many letters are in your name?
2 letters=red cat
3 letters=orange cat
4 letters=yellow cat
5 letters=green cat
6 letters=blue cat
7 or more letters=purple cat
Which activity do you like best?
Reading=heart shaped nose
Writitng=triangle shaped nose
Color of shoes is your child favorite color(s).
Look at the pictures of our cats and find out a few things about the artist that created the cats.
