So many colors, so many details. I love everything about Olaf Hajek’s colorful and vibrant illustrations. Although he studied graphic design, Olaf creates most of his works by hand. His works are painted with acrylic on cardboard, paper or wood and they can be found on books, posters, stamps and even on hotel walls. His colorful works […]

This week Kindergarten and 1st grade reviewed types of lines {our Line Alphabet}. I had made this anchor chart with Kindergarten last week and both classes reviewed the lines with me in our group meeting on the carpet. {found inspiration from this pin} Kindergarten Magic Carpets This class we practiced these lines again, this time with our 'Magic Crayons' {aka Oil Pastels} to make a Magic Carpet. We looked at a few Magic Carpet pictures, and saw the lines and designs on them and the direction these lines made. Then after they drew all the different lines we used our paint ... and MAGIC! The lines stayed put as the paint went on top. This was also a great review for how to use a paintbrush correctly. {Tip: punching the holes and tying the tassels before they drew on the paper was the best way to go! Here is a whole class ready to go.} Happy Thursday!! ~ Kristin

Katharina Grosse is a German artist based in Berlin. We were captivated by her architectural shapes, and the vivid colors in her paintings. Her process is equally powerful: armed with a spray gun, she covers large canvasses, often close to seven feet heigh, with layers of paint. “I become a different being when I’m spraying,” […]
Acrylic embedment captures a “moment in time” by permanently encasing meaningful objects in acrylic for the perfect memento.
Every child who has ever watched Finding Nemo has heard of ocean currents. Seriously educational stuff there, folks! While Finding Nemo is definitely not the most educational movie of all time, it can really spark curiosity in kids to find out more about ocean currents, like the East Australian Current, and how they are formed.
So our school has designated several days throughout the year (primarily early release days) as "STEM" days! This means that every classroo...

Babies born of women who have undergone bariatric or weight-loss surgery are more likely to be premature and small for gestational age, reveals a large registry study in Sweden.
Projects described in books or shown on Youtube seem absurdly easy, but I have yet come across a project that didn't need any tinkering before I could take it into a classroom. This one isn't too bad, but it still took me longer than I expected. I came across this robotic hand project on Youtube as well as teachengineering.org (I think), but when I tried to build it, it took me almost two hours to work out the kinks. Sure, I did have to try several different versions and had to make adjustments as I went along, but I'm not sure if this is something I can take directly into a classroom of 2nd graders without more tinkering. BUT... I think it'll be fun to try it with my kids. Supplies Needed: Cardboard paper or cardstock paper Standard drinking straws (Dollar Store variety is fine) Pearl drink straws or bigger diameter straws Tape Yarn or twine Project Instructions (as of now): Trace your hand on a cardboard or cardstock paper. Cut the traced hand out (cutting it a little bigger than the actual tracing). Mark your finger joints on the cutout. Draw straight or curved line across it. Fold the fingers at the lines. Cut smaller straws to size (leave a little gap between the lines to facilitate in threading the yarn). Tape straw pieces to the hand. Thread yarn through the straw pieces. Each finger will have a length of yarn of its own. Thread all five pieces of yarn through the bigger straw. The writing on the hand has nothing to do with this project. I was recycling a stack of cardstock paper, and this one came out the best. The threading part was difficult. If I had a big needle for the yarn, it would have made it easier, but I didn't. So, I struggled with it. If I do go forward with this one, I think I'll have to buy big plastic needles for this project. The backside of the robotic hand. I had grand plans for making a sleeve that will cover the arm, but I'm not sure I'll be able to build all of that in an hour let alone a 2nd grader. So, I might still try it, but I probably won't take it into the classroom. If I were doing this in a classroom, I think I'll buy different colored yarns for each finger, so the students will know which finger they are trying to move. With the same colored yarns, it was difficult to figure out which end went with which finger. I'll try to get my kids to make it soon, and post the results. In the meantime, why don't you give it a try? I spent two hours doing it, but it didn't feel like two hours. So, at the end of the day, if you enjoyed it, does it matter how long it takes? Unless, of course, you only have an hour of school science project time. Have a great day and have fun! P.S. - If you have any ideas about making this project more 2nd grader friendly, please let me know. Thanks!

I gave each student a bag of jelly beans, they sorted them and then answered the probability questions. We made a circle with the jelly beans and drew lines from the dot in the middle to where two colors meet to create a pie chart. The bags had 4 colors in each: 9, 6, 4 and 2.

In patterning our life after the Savior's we should seek for opportunities to serve those around us. In Mosiah 2:17 it states, "...when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God." As Relief Society sisters, we have tremendous opportunity to watch out for those around us that need that loving hand of help. When we feel impressed to help someone we need to listen to those promptings and act upon them. We can provide service to others individually or we can do this as a family. Teaching our children the importance of unselfishness, love, and sacrifice. One thing that we did with our kids a few months back was thirty days of service. Each day we did an act of service for thirty days. It was fun to see them serve others and discuss the happy feelings we each individually felt from doing so. Here are some ideas:
This is another thing that I've wanted to sort out for the kids for a while, but it wasn't until recently that the right container came ou...
