This lesson is always a hit with the kids. This year we did the background a little differently. You can find previous years robots here. I really wanted the robots to stand out from the background so we used black paper and metallic paints to print gear-like designs. I collected some found objects; Lego and Kinex pieces, cardboard and plastic lids. The kids dipped the objects in the paint and pressed them onto the black paper. They were the perfect backgrounds for these cool robots. Here are a few of the finished products and you can check out the rest on Artsonia.

Second graders are finishing up some really creative drawings set under the ground, so we did a lot of visualizing to come up with our ideas. We looked at some classic book illustrations by Garth Williams of Cricket in Times Square fame and the always classic Beatrix Potter. All of these story animals live in a hidden away, subterranean world and the job of the illustrator is to create that world. We talked about visual textures found in the layers of soil, clay, and rock. Some drawings show a realistic setting for a possible hibernating animal, readying for winter, and others have more of a sense of humor about them, as if the animals lived like people. Thanks to North Art Alert for posting their lesson on underground worlds - my students were inspired by yours.

Amazing things can happen with just one dot.

Are you looking for a resource to help your primary students learn about patterns in math? To help my students learn and remember the vocabulary associated with patterns I designed these patterns posters. I post them on my math bulletin board and students refer to them as needed when working on patterns. Pattern math posters included in this resource are: -patterns are all around us -pattern -core -term -element -repeating pattern -attribute -increasing/growing pattern -decreasing pattern -reading a pattern -examples of AB, ABC, AAB, ABB, AABB, ABCD These posters go great with my patterns booklet resource. Patterns Booklet I hope this helps your students learn about patterns. Any questions of suggestions, please email me at [email protected]. Thank you, Jane
