I am a self-taught nail artist from Bulgaria, who loves unusual nail designs. All of the designs are done by me on my own nails. Each of them took me at least 2 hours to finish. I paint well-known characters from the cartoons of your childhood, logos of different brands, parts of TV series and games on my nails. I hope you like them!
We've launched the most ADORABLE Balanced-Literacy Fairy Tale Unit! I couldn't help myself...I had to post some photos from the first few days of our unit. I am splitting fairy tales up into two weeks (which will make for one LARGE unit) 1. Princesses/Royalty (Cinderella, Rupunzel, etc...) 2. Folk Stories (3 Little Pigs, Goldilocks, Etc..) Here are some PRINCESS/ROYALTY Sneak Peaks! Here is how we are keeping track of our fairy tale features. Each time we read a story we check it off here and in our fairy tale folders. A follow up for shared writing: Writing Invitations for the Royal Ball Look at bottom left: She included a menu. LOL After reading Cinderella and Sidney Rella, we made glass slippers and sneakers. Then, we decided that we needed to have a "chat" with Ms. Cinderella. =) Shared Writing: We practiced writing summaries and identifying the most important parts. We negotiated these parts together and I was the scribe. Mapping the Royal Kingdom! Point of View: We ALWAYS think about the main characters...lets take some time to think about the other characters' points of view! The Cinder-Stories we'll study. Rumpelstiltskin Math Activity! We graphed our names and compared them to the length of Rumpelstiltskin! I have had SO much fun creating these so far, and I'm only three days in! The unit will have much more balanced literacy packed in. Until then,

This is one of the many activities we enjoy in the summertime. Making leaf crowns, and spending an afternoon or two pretending to be Queens of the Forest, Roman Emperors, or Oak Leaf Fairies! So...go out and find a tree you LOVE...you can use any kind of leaf to make these... We have two HUGE Oak trees in our yard...so Oak leaves are our leaf of choice! Make sure when you pick the leaves that you pull off the stems as well... You'll want to break off all of the stems... These are what will hold your crown together... So now, overlap your leaves a bit, and using the stem, push it through both leaves like so... you'll need to do this leaf by leaf, until your crown is big enough to fit. Attach it together, using the same method as above... Now, get out your imagination, and get down to doing some serious playing...and don't forget to climb a tree or two in the process! Oh, there is nothing like a tree in the summertime...what a gift from nature! Of all the wonders of nature, a tree in summer is perhaps the most remarkable; with the possible exception of a moose singing "Embraceable You" in spats. ~Woody Allen May nature lead your spirit in play! xo maureen
