In this cow pack I have created a variety of english and math activities that you can choose from to use with you students. The information covered is aimed at a 2nd and 3rd Grade level and helps to build the students vocabulary and knowledge within this theme, as well as practicing skills in English and mathematics. Where necessary, I have created duplicate worksheets to cover both spellings for North American English as well as British English. I have also included both color and B & W versions of the worksheets. There are 25 pages (25 pages color version and 25 Pages B & W version) This “cow pack” consists of the following Cow Poster: This can be printed out as a poster to be used in a classroom display or used as an information sheet to be given to your students. I would use this to begin a class or group discussion with my students. Two cow information worksheets: These worksheets cover most of the information from the poster as well as some extra information. They help build vocabulary and include activities and questions related to the information. Label the cow worksheet: The students need to cut out the labels and paste them in the correct space to label the cow. My idea for this activity is for students to label the cow and then create their own poster with the information they have learnt about cows. Mindmap worksheet: Students use words and pictures to create a mindmap with the information they have learnt about cows. There is a basic template to help the students get started. Encourage them to add any other knowledge they may have about cows. Template for writing sentences Spelling list with cow themed spelling words Crossword Story with a cow theme and 2 pages of questions and activities based on the story. Verbs worksheets with cow themed examples. Write your own story: There are four sheets to guide learners with simple planning of a story and then writing their own cow story. In the answers file I have included a basic writing assessment checklist for teachers to use in assessing the children’s writing.

An interview with a dynamic artist and master watercolorist. Read about her work, watercolors and the art life here - Draw Paint Academy.

There has been some controversy about female cows with horns (yes females can have horns, but often dairy cows have them removed). But from a patchwork perspective, horns can be downright fiddly. So I thought I would provide a cow tutorial for one without horns. And this cow is facing forward, but we'll call it a left-headed cow, and later I will provide a tutorial for a right-headed cow. The cow's finished size is 9.5 by 14.75 inches and is based on a .75 inch grid. The cow uses five fabrics: a background, a very dark color for the eyes and nostril, a contrasting fabric (orange) for the nose, udder and hooves, a medium dark (dark teal) for the face and tail and a light teal for the rest of the cow. For the medium dark fabric, you don't want it so dark that the eyes don't stand out, but you do want it to differ enough from the rest of the cow. Black Fabric (Very Dark): Total of 1.25 by 5 inches one 1.25 by 2.5 inch rectangle two 1.25 inch square Medium Dark Teal: Total of 2 by 11.5 inch strip and a 1.25 by 13 inch strip) two 2 by 2.75 inch rectangle three 2 in squares one 1.25 by 2.5 inch rectangle two 1.25 by 2.75 inch rectangle four 1.25 inch squares Light Teal: one 1.25 by 3.5 in rectangle six 1.25 in square three 2 by 2.75 in rectangle one 2 by 3.5 in rectangle one 2 by 4.25 in rectangle one 2.75 by 4.25 in rectangle one 2.75 by 3.5 in rectangle one 5 by 6.5 in rectangle Contrast (Orange): Total 2 by 7.75 in strip and 1.25 by 7 in strip two 1.25 by 3.5 in rectangle four 1.25 by 2 in rectangle one 2 by 2.75 in rectangle Background: ten 1.25 in square one 1.25 by 2 in rectangle one 1.25 by 3.5 in rectangle one 2 in square one 2 by 3.5 in rectangle three 2.75 in square one 2.75 by 3.5 in rectangle one 2.75 by 4.25 in rectangle one 3.5 by 5.75 in rectangle As I make the various animal blocks, I don't always cut everything at once. I usually have strips of fabric in useful sizes and slice from that as I need it. I do cut the large hunks first, like the cow body. And before we lay out the entire cow, let's make the cow eyes. To make the cow eyes, take the 1.25 by 2.5 in rectangles of teal and black and sew them together lengthwise. Then cut them in half as shown. You now have two cow eyes and are ready to lay out the entire cow. This looks complicated but will be done in a few easy steps. First, we'll construct the nose. Then we'll chain piece all of the flip triangles (those squares in the corner of the blocks that we iron over to make triangles). At that point the cow will be easily constructed from ever growing building blocks. To make the nose, first sew the nostrils to either end of the 1.25 by 2 inch rectangle of orange. Next, sew 1.25 by 3.5 inch strips of orange to either side of the nostril piece. Now that you have a nose, sew four 1.25 in squares onto each corner to make a flip triangle in each corner. This is what the nose part looks like when you're finished. There are ten pieces that require flip triangles. This diagram shows all of the pieces that go into the units. Look ahead to the next step to see the placement and direction of each flip triangle. After you have sewn all the flip triangles onto their bases, the cow really begins to take shape. In the last diagram, I show some sections already sewn, but this step shows that extra sewing. This includes sewing the 1.25 by 2 inch orange hooves to the leg pieces (2 by 2.75 in light teal rectangles for the front legs (3, 4) and a 2 by 3.5 in light teal rectangle for the back leg). Also, sew the 1.25 by 3.5 in teal tail to the 2 by 3.5 in background rectangle (1). Next, we will sew the eyes to the forehead units, the right ear to the back, and the top of the tail to the middle part of the tail. Also sew the tail tip to the 1.25 by 2 inch background rectangle. Then sew the udder to the 2.75 in square of background. And sew the front legs to either side of the 1.25 by 3.5 in strip of background. Last, but not least, sew the cheeks to either sides of the nose. This is how the cow should look now. Sew both eyes to either side of the forehead. Sew the udder section to the background piece with the single flip triangle. Sew the front legs to the chest and sew the left ear to the 2.75 by 3.5 inch rectangle of background. I don't want you to think Molly was not doing her job. In fact, she got up from her nap behind the design board about the time I had laid out all of the individual pieces. Of course, we know that is more temptation than Molly can resist, so I put her outside of the sewing room and closed the door. As you proceed with the rest of the tutorial, imagine her banging on the door to be let in. Also, imagine that Buddy has joined her and is insisting that he needs to be in the sewing room NOW! Ignore the pounding for now, and this is what the cow should look like at this point. Now sew the forehead to the nose and the back to the body. Sew the tail tip piece to the 2.75 in square of background. Sew the front legs to the 3.5 by 5.75 in rectangle of background. Now the cow looks like this. Now sew the left ear to the head and sew the top of the tail to the body. Also, sew the tip of the tail unit to the back leg and udder. Now sew the udder section to the body and the front legs to the head. And yes, it is now quite safe to let the cats back in the sewing room. You only have to sew the front of the cow to the back of the cow and you are finished. Ta da!

Take approx. 200m of a special yarn (handspun, variegated or striping yarns work well) add roughly the same amount of a contrasting yarn and knit and slip !! really easy and really shows off your special yarn.
