We have corn fields all around us and we often talk about how corn grows. Now we can use this simple Corn Life
We headed out for a letterboxing adventure at a park in the middle of town this week. Everyone was tired, showing the early signs of the colds the girls woke up with this morning, and enthusiasm was flagging. Until we got there and saw how beautiful the woods were. The path we took, following the letterboxing directions, was going to lead us past this pink haze that decorated the forest. I let the girls read and decipher the instructions... At the base of a two-stemmed tree, they began to search through the leaves. We studied this hole for a very long time, sticking sticks and then arms in, but we found no box. Wouldn't that be the perfect spot for hiding a spot? We circled and circled the tree, but found nothing. We all felt a little disappointed, but found a spot to clamber about and eat some snack (snack usually helps). I'd also brought along The Tree Book for Kids and Their Grown-ups, so we sat among the leaves and talked about leaves. Lovely. I've been inspired by this post (it is not loading properly right now; I will amend this later, but in the meantime, the blog is Small Things, and there is a button in their sidebar for their Tree Study) about their year-long tree study, and knowing that the girls are ready for more in-depth information about plants and trees, beyond identification, I've been thinking of ways to weave it into our days. They were eager to search for examples of simple and compound leaves - the ones remaining anyway! - and to notice whether they were growing in an opposite or alternate pattern on the branches. We continued our walk, knowing that there was another letterbox yet to come...and this one was also disappointing! This time it was because it was so not hidden at all, but sat in its very own box out for everyone to see...and the log had long since run out of room for our scribblings and stampings. Ah well, it just further convinced us that we need to start planning for our own planting of a letterbox. We at last reached the cloud of pink...this is a new tree to us (euonymus atropurpureus) - I think it is sometimes called Burning Bush, but we've learned it as Wahoo, which is also what we say when we see it now - WaHOO!! It is gorgeous right now. Its stems are really unusual, with lines or wings of a cork-like tissue along them. We pressed a few of the leaves we collected, and today we made leaf drawings, like those I saw here.
Right now, animals make up a big portion of our science lessons.
Earthworms are such fascinating creatures, not to mention being a gardener's best friend! This is a 12" x 18" poster of a few different types of earthworms along with a bit of anatomy. It has been professionally printed onto lovely matte 100 lb card stock and initialed and dated on the reverse. The generous top and bottom margins are perfect for framing using a wooden poster hanger (which also makes it very easy to change out posters every now and then). This listing does NOT include the wooden, magnetic poster hanger used in the photo. Your poster will be carefully packaged in a kraft tube for mailing. ★★ Frame not included ★★ I do my best to portray colors accurately, however different monitors (and cameras) will vary in how they display colors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER AND GET 10% OFF: https://twigandmoth.myflodesk.com/newsletter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ***Purchase does not transfer copyright.

We are currently starting our final projects of the year. [I can't believe it!] But for now, let me catch you up on what we just finished... 5th and 4th grade have been working on the same concepts for the past two projects. Both grades participated in a school wide Egyptian art unit by creating Egyptian sarcophagi. They reviewed SYMMETRY, and learned about hieroglyphics. After that, they learned about creating TINTS and SHADES by making an undersea painting. You can find these handouts here- http://www.teachandshoot.com/2015/02/art-room-handouts-round-3-value.html I would have let the students have more freedom with other colors, but I really only had blue left, and underwater came to mind. Thanks for visiting! 3rd grade also participated in the Egyptian art unit by creating Egyptian PORTRAITS! This might be my favorite project from this year. What a wonderful job the students did! After that, 3rd grade made ORIGAMI frogs, but I forgot to take photos! After origami, 3rd grade started creating ASSEMBLAGE art like the artist Louise Nevelson. They are just starting to paint their sculptures this week! 2nd grade created a fun pyramid COLLAGE as part of the Egyptian art unit! After that, 2nd and 1st grade both created ABSTRACT Picasso PORTRAITS. 1st grade and kindergarten created Egyptian necklaces and learned a little bit about PERSPECTIVE by drawing the pyramids. Kindergarten just finished learning about weaving by creating some alligator WEAVINGs!
