Look at these "beauties" I met in Alabama last week? Toot-A-Roo One teacher shared this idea she found on Pinterest. Instead of tattling, the boys and girls try to catch each other doing something well or kind. They can “Tootle” (ta ta ta ta ta ta taaa!) and tell the class or teacher. It reminded me of the "Toot-a-Roo" a teacher told me about several years ago. Cut paper towel rolls in half and let the children decorate them with markers and stickers. When a child accomplishes something or you want to reward them the class gets their toot-a-roos and "ta, ta, ta, ta, ta, tala!" "Beano” Game (Rollins Thorpe) You will need “Five Hour Energy” bottles without labels to make this game. Write a number on the outside with a sharpie and put that many beans inside the bottle. Students shake out some beans, count them, and decide how many must be inside for the bottle to reach the number on the bottle. They can keep playing until they have found all of the combinations. Knock Knock!My daughter Holly wrote this rhyme about ten years ago, but one of the best things about children and poems is that they never go out of style. Write this poem on a chart or make a PPT. Read it over several times with your class. *Divide the class into two groups. Let one group read the "Knock! Knock" while the other group responds. *Let the teacher read the "Knock! Knock!" and the children respond. *Use different voices to reflect the characters in each rhyme. *Enlarge the font and print a rhyme on each page. Pass these out to the children to illustrate. (This would be a good project to do with a friend.) Put their pictures together to make a class book. *Invite children to make up their own "Knock! Knock!" rhymes. Knock! Knock! By Dr. Holly Knock! Knock! Who can it be? Little mousie, squeak! squeak! squeak! Knock! Knock! Who’s at the door? Boom! boom! boom! It’s a dinosaur. Knock! Knock! Who is that? It’s a drummer—rat-a-tat-tat! Knock! Knock! Guess who? Baby crying—boo-hoo-hoo! Knock! Knock! Who’s there? Grrr! Grrr! It’s a grizzly bear! Knock! Knock! Who can it be? It’s a cowboy—How-dy! Knock! Knock! Who’s there? Granny in her underwear! (or rocking chair if it’s less scandalous) Knock! Knock! Who’s at the door? Big strong lion—roar! roar! Knock! Knock! Guess who? Opera singer—la da de do! Knock! Knock! Who is that? Purr, purr, my big fat cat! Knock! Knock! Guess who? Mr. Robot—Hello. How are you? Knock! Knock! Who can it be? A librarian—shhh! Quiet please!

Here’s 10 ways to use a parachute in the music classroom. Activities will help students learn and practice music concepts. Parachutes can be used for so many fun activities in the music room. I’ve discovered that they are especially helpful during the latter part of the school year when students are more “squiggly” than ever! […]
The boy’s made the masks (which I pre bought) by decorating them with glitter, crépe paper, tissue paper and paint. Halloween can be so unrated in the UK. It’s something that I really love as I think it is the ideal time for children to really indulge in their creative and imaginative sides! I spend hours trawling pinterest at this time of year to find fun foods, craft ideas and DIY costumes for the boys to enjoy. There are so many things out there for them to get involved in, even for little ones of Toby’s age. So this year we have made a few things (sun catchers, pom pom spiders and meringue ghouls to name a few!), but one of my favourite things, which I will treasure forever is the Halloween masks the boys have made this year. I am going to confess that I am a bit of a cheat, we pre bought the paper mâché masks and the boys decorated them using crépe paper, tissue paper, glitter, funky feathers and paint. You can buy the pre made masks here and decorate them yourself, which I honestly think is the best course of action if you are a busy mama, especially this late in the day as you won’t really have time to make the paper mâché and let it dry, then decorate it and let it dry. The boy’s masks are really dear to me but they are really basic, crazy and unlikely to win any talent contests! With that in mind, I thought I would share a few pictures of the wonderful DIY masks that have inspired me, all using paper mâché or other really easy to get hold of supplies! Funky, traditional design for a halloween mask (done using paper mâché and a pre bought mask from the same place I ordered ours!) This pin was automatically sent to my Halloween board for being super cool. 10 different cardboard mask designs from handmadecharlotte.com Felt is a great last minute mask craft option, you can glue it to cardboard or thick card to create a solid impression, or not if you choose. Another hugely tradtional mask, decorated using paints. Made from cardboard, why not try something like this and team it with a homemade sword!? Found via allfortheboys.com I love this idea, and the way Reuben behaves when he sees a falling leaf, he would too. We may well buy another mask and give this a go just for fun by sticking leaves (these a faux, hence the reason they look so perfect!) onto a pre made shell! Found via Magpies Masquerie on Etsy.
