I'm so excited to add this Ukrainian song to my collection of songs about rain from around the world, and this one has some musical elements that are part of both my younger and older grades' curriculum, so it will work well with a wide range of ages! The title of this Ukrainian song is Дощик, which translates to "Rain". Fits right in with the rain theme! Actually I found a couple of fairly widespread Ukrainian rain songs, and both of them use the same onomatopoeia word for the sound of the rain that is quite fun to sing. In the verses of this song you'll hear the word of every line: I love using songs in different languages that have a repeated word or phrase that is quick and easy for students to learn without knowing the language, so this song definitely fits the bill. After we listen to it one time, I ask students to tell me what the Ukrainian word is for the sound of raindrops and they can immediately identify the sound! Then I play the recording again and have students sing along with just that word. Here are the lyrics for the first verse: Дощик ллється цілий ранок - кап-кап-кап! It's been raining all morning, kap-kap-kap! Не виходимо на ґанок - кап-кап-кап. Let's not go out on the porch, kap-kap-kap! Раптом бачим під кущем Suddenly we see under the bush, кап-кап-кап-кап-кап! kap-kap-kap-kap-kap! Мокне зайчик під дощем The bunny gets wet in the rain, кап-кап-кап-кап-кап! kap-kap-kap-kap-kap! Once we've sung through the song, singing just the rain sounds, I ask students to identify the 2 different sections in the music. It's easy for them to notice that there is one part that has the "kap" sound in it and another section that doesn't. This is an easy way to review form/ same and contrasting sections, and identify the ABABA form. For younger students I stop there, and we compare and contrast this song with other songs about rain. For older students this is a great song to introduce or review major and minor tonalities! After identifying the form, I ask them what makes the 2 sections sound different from each other. The B section (chorus) lyrics are: Ой ти, зайчику сіренький, ой ти, зайчику маленький! Oh you gray bunny, oh you little bunny! годі мерзнути, дрижати, ти ходи мершій до хати, You're freezing and shivering, go home! ми дамо тобі морквину ще й велику капустину, We will give you carrots and cabbage. понесеш їх у лісок годувати діточок, Take them to the forest to feed your children бо маленькі зайченята вже давно чекають тата. The babies have been waiting for their dad. There is a clear switch from minor to major between the A and B sections, and it's interesting to discuss with students why the composer may have chosen to put the verses in minor and the chorus in major (maybe because the bunny is getting some food to take home to his family?). After comparing and contrasting "Rain, Rain, Go Away" with the Japanese "Amefuri" and talking about the differences in attitude towards the rain in the two songs, this is a great follow-up song because of the switching back and forth between tonalities. This could be a great jumping off point for a composition activity with older students, when they're learning to write melodies in major and minor tonalities, to compose one song about all the positive things about rain in major and another about all of the negative things about rain in minor. It's a great way to get the ideas going! I've been sharing my favorite lesson ideas using rain songs from around the world in my previous posts: you can see my lessons for a song from Japan here, and Morocco here. I highly recommend those! If you've ever used this Ukrainian song and have more lesson ideas, or if you have other rain songs that I should add to my unit, please share in the comments!
Am I the only one who is ready for this Winter to be over? Spring Break is right around the corner and we still have freezing temperatures here!! This week we have been looking at the ugly, freezing, dark skies and rain. We wanted to turn it into something beautiful! Begin with a white crayon and draw the horizon line. there should be a big emphasis on drawing OVALS instead of circles. Students figured out that you can see the white crayon BETTER when the paper in on their stool UNDER the table! So I let them draw on their stools! Can you see the white crayon in the picture? Some students added a rainbow, lightning bolt or other details Then I swiped the ENTIRE paper with a wet rag to begin the wet on wet watercolor I used Sargent Liquid Watercolor Magic for this. I use it ALOT because of the vibrant colors. We used turquoise, Blue, and black Ovals should be very small at the top of the horizon, but gradually get larger as they go down the page. Use a straight edge for the rain drops. The must TOUCH each puddle First, paint some large blue "blobs" on your paper. Then paint around the blue with black and watch it blend with the blue and the wet paper!! I have some siblings at my school working on a special project and they painted the background with the rain idea and it turned out great! Here is a link to the kind of watercolors I use for EVERYTHING! There are different sizes if you want a smaller set. You can put them in muffin tins or ice cube trays on the tables. You can see the link " liquid watercolors" on the sidebar to see many other projects I have used these with

Monsoon sadetakin kauluksen täysin uudenlainen tekninen rakenne mahdollistaa entistäkin kattavamman saumojen teippauksen. Takin kauluksen saumat on sijoitettu pystysuoraan, jolloin kaulus pystytään teippaamaan täysin vedenpitäväksi. Lisäksi kauluksen reunassa on vedenpitävästä trikoosta valmistettu sadekaulus, joka estää veden valumisen koiran kaulaa pitkin takin sisälle. Kiristämällä miellyttävän pehmeän kauluksen ylös koiran kaulalle pysyvät myös rinnan ja kaulan alueet suojassa. Takin takahelman näyttävät heijastinprintit lisäävät näkyvyyttä pimeällä liikkuessa. Vatsakappaleen leveä muoto pitää takin paikallaan, jolloin se pysyy hyvin koiran päällä hurjimmissakin leikeissä rajoittamatta silti koiran liikkeitä. Peittävä vatsakappale suojaa mahanalusen tehokkaasti kuralta ja hiekalta.

The ultimate way to stay dry in rough weather. One Parka is a waterproof and breathable 2,5-layer shell parka that will keep you sheltered in any weather all year around. A classic, longer parka cut will protect you from any sideways rain- or snowfall.When we design our products, we often start in a timeless garment and then redesign it with an extra layer of smartness. The classic parka was designed by the US military and then popularized by the British mods culture. In our interpretation, we have removed the lining and created a cutting edge shell garment. This way you can use the garment all year around, even in the summer. Just layer up from the inside and you can wear it on the coldest winter days.One Parka is made in Mission Hardshell, a waterproof and breathable shell fabric, made in recycled and recyclable polyester. The fabric is incredibly durable and serve you just as well on rainy days in the city as mountain adventures. Both membrane and water repellent is completely free from PFAS. High performance should never come at the price of a high environmental impact.If you are looking for a cozy raincoat to keep you dry in any rough weather, we can highly recommend One Parka. If you layer up with something warm underneath it will keep you comfortable all through winter. Don’t be afraid to bring it to the ski slopes when the weather is rough.This garment is recyclable and we kindly ask you to return it to us when it’s completely worn out.Details Relaxed fit Waterproof Breathable Hidden elastic in cuff Bottom hem pleat for movement Large, adjustable hood 2 side pockets and inner pocket 100% recycled and recyclable fabric Weight 570 g Fabrics and TechnologyMain Fabric: Mission HardshellWaterproof and breathable 2,5L hardshell. A fabric with high performance and soft touch. Origin: Japan 100% recycled polyester Atmos™, 100% Polyester membrane Weight: 165 g/sqm Breathability; 15,000 g/m2/24h Waterproofness: 20,000 mm H2O or higher High durability PFAS-Free water repellency treatment Bluesign® certified Recyclable Membrane: Atmos™Atmos™ Membrane is a hydrophilic membrane, not micro porous, and at the molecular-level moisture moves through the fabrics. The more moisture that is in circulation the greater the ability of the membrane to move moisture away from your body. With Atmos we are sure we have a membrane that delivers Houdini standards when it comes to high performance in an environmentally sustainable way, which no other membrane at the market can live up to. Atmos™ membrane is made from recyclable polyester.All our shell garments are 100% free from PFAS.Care InstructionsShell jackets with membrane Air out clothes instead of washing them to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer. Make sure to wash your shell if it has been used in salt water or has gotten very sweaty or dirty as this weakens the performance of the garment. They can reduce the fabric’s breathability and damage the water repellent surface. The dirt can even allow for moisture to leak through the fabric. Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans. Machine wash cold. There are special detergents for shells, but mild, environmentally certified detergents work just as fine. Make sure to use the right dose. Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability. Hang dry. Just remember to introduce heat to the garment after washing to reactivate the water resistant surface of the outer fabric. Use a drying cabinet, dryer or iron. Make sure you monitor the heat so the garment does not melt. You can reapply or enforce the water repellent treatment with a wash-in or spray when needed. Always use an organic DWR: You can find both a spray and a wash-in in the webshop or in our stores. Remember to introduce heat to the garment after washing to reactivate the water resistant surface of the fabric. SustainabilityBluesign®The Bluesign® Label means that the production is vetted by a third party to eliminate any harmful chemicals or substances right from the beginning of the production process. This benefits both people, animals and our entire planet.Circular The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.Recycled The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Besides the production impact, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.Recyclable The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used for new products, instead of becoming waste. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from recycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
