Kiddos are fascinated with Outer Space! When I was a Reggio Emilio teacher, we spent an entire month learning about the ins and outs of the Solar System. Inevitably we always have a conversation about aliens and so this is a fun way to play with paint and imagination. For this project I would use 9x12 paper and break this down as a series of shapes. Lots of simple patterns here and more advanced artists can add more detail if they so desire. While I do not have a video about Outer Space (Yet!), I have one that hearkens to the sea...

Hello Everyone! Thanks for stopping by! I have to tell you, I am loving this whole blogging thing. I hope to learn how to upload some of my printables very soon. Check back again for things like that! There were two activities that ended up being our favorites today! The first one is math related. We have been working on "area" of shapes. The kids have really caught on to simple area, so I decided to challenge them a bit. I gave them a piece of one inch grid paper. They had to use the squares to create one of the animals we have been studying. After a practice sheet, they had to recreate it with markers on a new piece. When finished, they had to document the area of their animal. Fantastic job kids!!! By the look on their faces, I know they were enjoying every minute of it!! Take a look!! practicing area with animal shapes It's a moose, of course! Cute Coyote! Sweet Skunk!! Terrific Turtle! Our next favorite thing was learning about fireflies!!! Fascinating insects! After reading some of our favorite firefly books and poems, enjoying interaction with a firefly in a jar, we practiced the firefly lifecycle, wrote a list of things that also light up the night sky (sorry I don't have a pic of that) and then worked on a craft connection. The kids were given a paper jar to cut out...tricky cutting out the inside! :) The jars were laminated and the film was left in the middle. We then fingerprinted the wings of fireflies with glow in the dark neon paint. Add a silver sharpie body and voila!! So cute!! The kids had a ball!! We will hang these from the ceiling!! Have you seen these?? Battery operated firefly in a jar!! LOOOOOOVE IT!! Click here for your copy! :) Glowing fireflies in a jar! Another awesome day in first grade!!! Thanks for taking a peek!! Have a Glowing tomorrow!! Joyfully! Nancy

This northern lights chalk art project for kids is so simple yet so beautiful! There is something so fun about working with chalk on a black piece of construction paper! It's almost magical that the chalk begins to look like a glowing light on the paper! My poor 8 year old was home with a cold the other day and was happy to help me figure out the best way to make northern lights. (Plus it helped me get her away from the TV for awhile.) We sat together on my office floor and tried a few different methods -

Glow Day was literally the peak of my teacher career. For the seven years I was in the classroom (currently on a hiatus at home with my youngest) I've done Glow Day twice, and it was the most magical day I've ever had. No lie, I had a kid cry and tell me it was the best day of his life. *cue happy teacher tears* 🥹
