La Linea !!! J'adorais regarder ce petit intermède de quelques minutes. Un dessin animé minimaliste mais très original. Rappelez-vous.. Au départ, ce personnage a été créé en 1969 par le dessinateur italien Osvaldo Cavandoli pour une série de films publicitaires intitulée Carosello pour la maison Lagostina, une maison d’articles de table. L’auteur de La Linea, donc Osvaldo Cavandoli, dit "Cava" est né le 1er janvier 1920 à Maderno, en Italie. Il débute sa carrière professionnelle en 1936 comme dessinateur technique pour la marque automobile Alfa Romea avant d’approfondir sa passion et ses talents de dessinateur pour l’animation. A partir de 1943, il commence à travailler avec Nino Pagot, le créateur de Caliméro. Leur collaboration durera jusqu’en 1950 date à laquelle Osvaldo Cavandoli s’installe seul en tant que réalisateur et producteur. C’est en 1969 qu’il devient véritablement célèbre grâce à La Linea. Le personnage a été créé au départ par l’agence ODG (Orsini, Damioli, Gandin) pour une série de films publicitaires intitulée Carosello. Le slogan publicitaire disait à peu près ceci : "Nous vous annonçons un heureux événement. Agostino Lagostina est né. Qui est Agostino ? Un petit homme vif au nez vraiment expressif, plein de toutes les instances et inquiétudes de la vie moderne. Fils d’un crayon et d’une main." La série animée continuera bien au-delà de cet aspect. Osvaldo Cavandoli est mort le 3 mars 2007. M. Linea ne dit rien de précis quand il fustige son dessinateur. C’est simplement un charabia de sons incompréhensibles à l’accent milanais ! Dans les années 70, ce que les possesseurs de téléviseurs noir et blanc ignoraient, c'est que la couleur du fond changeait avec l'humeur du personnage et de ses rencontres. En France, la série a été diffusée à partir de 1977 sur TF1 dans L'île aux enfants puis dans Celluco sur La Cinquième dans les années 1990. Les épisodes numérotés de 1 à 8 sont réalisés à partir de plans tirés des pubs de Carosello. Les 56 épisodes suivants portent les numéros 101 à 156. La seconde série va de 200 à 225. Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas, imaginez un fond noir. Une main apparaît et dessine une ligne horizontale blanche et, dans la foulée et au milieu de l’écran, un bonhomme très simple (dont la principale caractéristique est le gros nez). La main disparaît, le bonhomme s’anime, s’étire puis apostrophe le dessinateur. La phrase est incompréhensible mais se termine par «… ligne ici ?». La main revient et termine la ligne sur la droite. La satisfaction de la Linéa s’exprime par de nouvelles onomatopées « Mmmm, daaa ! ». Il commence à se promener sur la ligne en chantonnant « Labalalala lala » et très vite il lui arrive mille et un péripéties. Pour se sortir de tous les mauvais pas, il apostrophe toujours le dessinateur pour que celui-ci lui rajoute des accessoires. Son langage est strictement incompréhensible mais ses mimiques et le ton de sa voix – souvent râleur, parfois enjôleur – permettent de suivre l’histoire sans problème. Quelques soient les aventures de l’épisode que vous regardiez, la fin sera toujours la même : la ligne s’arrête et le petit bonhomme tombe. La main du dessinateur réapparaît une dernière fois pour inscrire le mot « fin » puis résonne la mélodie de fin « Badoum-badoum, badoum-badoum, badoum-badoum… badoum-badoum ». Simplissime mais inoubliable ! Cette série met donc en vedette un homme au tracé simple vivant sur une ligne horizontale qui n’a de limite que par la volonté du crayon de son dessinateur. Celui-ci, dont on ne voit ponctuellement de lui qu’une main et son crayon, crée l’univers dans lequel vit ce sympathique personnage primaire au langage propre, sans nom officiel mais parfois appelé Balou ou Monsieur Linea selon les pays. Sa voix est celle de Carlo Bonomi (né en 1937). Quand il se retrouve devant un problème, Balou fait appel à l'artiste qui dessine, au fur et à mesure, des éléments de décor. À chaque fin d'émission, Cavandoli laisse généralement son personnage tomber dans le vide. En plus du dessin et de la voix de Monsieur Linea, le troisième élément d'importance dans cette série est la musique composée par Franco Godi. D'abord celle qui ouvre et clôt chaque épisode, caractérisée par ce Baiubadu que fredonne son interprète et qui lui donne son nom. Ensuite la ligne de jazz qui accompagne les aventures de Balou, un tre jazz rapido qui traduit l'excitation permanente du protagoniste. Bon, on peut découvrir ou revoir le 1er épisode via le lien suivant (et on peut en revoir plein sur Internet, youpi !) : la-linea-di-osvaldo-cavandoli.blogspot.comEn 1978 et 1988, il développe deux nouveaux personnages "coquins" : sexlinea et eroslinea (à voir sur Youtube). Alors, aimez-vous La Linea vous aussi ?

One of the first projects my first graders made were these “All About Me Crayons”. I had seen and taught this lesson probably 10 years ago and decided to revisit it.

Struggling knowing how to parent your ADHD child? This article will fill you with clarity and give you ideas that require no punishments or rewards. Read about how I put Ross Greene's CPS method into action and learned how to parent my ADHD child.

Had to share a quick picture of a text I recieved from a parent (who is also a co-worker). It made my day as I so respect this teacher and love the child. Since my student's mother is a 7th grade language arts teacher at my school, I assumed that my student would want to be in her mother's room. I guess once again I understand what happens when one assumes (but this time it was a good lesson to learn). I also received a large bag of white chocolate popcorn from this students as well - her mother knows it is a favorite of mine!

After they have all had a turn looking inside the box, ask them the question again. Explain to them that they each are one of the most important people in the world because they are unique/different and that their is no one else in the world just like them. That is what makes them very special. This is What I Like Need- 2 pieces of paper with 1 happy face drawn on one and 1 sad face on the other. Tape the two sheets of paper to opposite walls in your classroom. Directions- Show the children the two faces you have taped to the walls.

Say the following one at a time: Birthday Parties, Lightening, Snowball Fights, Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwiches, Taking out the garbage, baseball, books, Barbie dolls, rainy days, hamsters, cleaning your room, playing outside. Gather the children back into the circle and say: Not everyone likes the same thing. Ask: Why doesn’t everyone like the same thing? Say: God made each of us special. None of us are like anyone else. We all have different things we like and do not like.

Begin by telling the group that everyone is special in lots of different ways. Take one of the items out of the bag and talk about how it represents one of the ways you (personally) are special, e.g. using a mirror - "I have blue eyes, wear glasses, and have freckles." Go around the circle and ask each child to name something special about himself related to the item from the bag. Select other items from the bag and repeat the activity. Encourage the children to think about many different ways we are all special. Application: Everyone is special in some way. How are the people in your family special?

Compare them with each other's prints. Some may be similar but none are identical. Emphasize that fingerprints are one of the ways that each of us is special.

I See Someone- Gather children in a circle. The teacher stands in the center to start the game. Begin by saying, "I see someone with brown shoes." Anyone who thinks the teacher is talking about her may say, "You see me." If she is right, she goes to the center and says, "I see someone..." If no one guesses right, give another hint. If a child doesn't wish to be in the center, casually pick someone else to take his place. The teacher can help by whispering hints to the child in the center, if needed. You can set a time limit on this game for however long you like. That’s Me!- Ask the children to listen for words or phrases that describe or identify something about them.
