Eliza Taylor gets more than just extra credit when she agrees to stay after class with the mysterious and extremely sought-after Mr. Woods. Meanwhile, Eliza's obsessive step-brother, Kai, will go to any lengths to keep her to himself.

This is the first in a 67 set series of lesson plans using Peterson's GED prep book as a base for a multi-disciplinary set of lesson plans aiming to get students (with 6-8 hours per day of study time) ready to take all 5 HiSET or GED subject exams. The lesson plans use a context-based model, attempting to tie the reading passage together with the history, science, writing and math goal for the given lesson. Classes were 4 nights per week, for 18 weeks, total. Extensive use on online resources, such as Khan Academy, is made during the course. Updated readings are posted regularly for all 67 lesson plan sets. Details and more learning material freely available at https://shiradest.wordpress.com/ Shira

First Grade art students are studying the art of Vincent Van Gogh. We looked at many of his paintings and discussed his unique brush strokes that create such vivid textures in his colorful paintings. We then read a great book called "Vincent's Colors" from the Metropolitan Museum of Art that shows many of Van Gogh's artworks accompanied by his own words describing them, from letters to his brother Theo. Then we studied one of his most famous works of art "Starry Night." Students recreated their own versions of starry night and made it closer to home, over the city of Austin. Students also recreated the textured strokes using oil pastels. This project is so wonderful because in spite of everyone doing the same subject matter, each child's art comes out so unique with their style of applying the oil pastels. Enjoy!

Groepswerk door leerlingen van groep 8 Kinderboekenweek 2023: Bij mij thuis! Benodigdheden: stevig tekenpapier A4 formaat in lengte doorgesneden viltstiften plaksel en schaar groot vel blauw fotokarton als achtergrond James Rizzi is geboren in 1950 te Brooklyn. Hij studeerde op de kunstacademie van Florida (Gainesville), waar hij experimenteerde met schilder- en druktechnieken en beeldhouwen. In Rizzi’s werk kom je vaak zijn geboorteplaats New York tegen. De schilderijen zien er soms kinderlijk naïef uit, metde felle kleuren en stralende vrolijkheid. In de kunstpers wordt hij vaak bestempeld als ‘Urban Primitive Artist’. Rizzi zegt zelf beïnvloed te zijn door Picasso, Klee en Dubuffet. Laat enkele schilderijen van Rizzi zien en bespreek wat opvalt: vrolijke kleuren geen nuances binnen de kleuren alles is zwart omlijnd huizen hebben menselijke gezichten/kenmerken het werk is vol en druk ook de achtergrond is gevuld Wat moet je doen? Teken een hoog huis of flat in Rizzi-stijl, dus een huis met een gezicht en andere menselijke dingen, zoals kledingstukken en ledematen. Let op: het moet een huis blijven, dus geen vierkant mens! Kleur het huis in met viltstift. Omlijn de details met zwarte fineliner. Knip je huis uit en trek de buitenkant om met een dikkere zwarte stift. Teken dingen voor in de lucht: sterren, een maan, wereldbol, luchtballon, ufo’s etc. Zie hiervoor de schilderijen van Rizzi. Om er een groepswerk van te maken, maakt elke leerling minstens één huis en één ding voor in de lucht. Schik alles op een blauwe ondergrond. Begin achteraan met plakken, zodat de onderste rij huizen er deels overheen geplakt kan worden. Let bij het plakken op de kleuren: geen twee dezelfde huizen naast elkaar. Plak vervolgens de sterren e.d. op de achtergrond. Beeldaspecten: ruimte (overlapping), kleur, lijn Technieken: tekenen, kleuren, omlijnen, knippen&plakken. Groep 7 met hun Rizzi-groepswerk

In case you haven't noticed, things have been a lil quiet around this here blog. It's not because I've not been busy...in fact, it's quite the opposite. I've been so busy with art show prepping (and other life stuff) that I found myself unable to keep up with my usual three posts a week. This has NEVER happened before...and I think that's because this was our biggest and most time-consuming art show yet! For our school-wide art show, we showcase EVERY piece of art that EVERY student has created all year. What that means is that the halls are filled from floor to ceiling with two-dimensional pieces. I'll be sharing that portion of the art show (complete with video tour!) in an upcoming blog post. Today, I thought I'd take you on a tour of the three-dimensional displays of the art show that I showcase in the art room. Here's a tour: Yes, I know, my art room is very large! It used to be the school library before a remodel that happened well before my time. Why do you think I wanted to be at this school so badly?! I'm fortunate that my administration gives me the day of the art show "off" to set up my art room like this. My specials team also helped me out by taking some of my classes to allow extra set up time. You never realize just how long all of this takes until you start pouring weeks, days and hours in to it! I thought I'd give you a closer look at all of the projects and share links to videos and/or blog posts in case you'd like more details. We'll start with this fun and easy kindergarten project! All of our clay projects were created with Amaco's low fire cone 06 clay. We also used Amaco's Teacher's Palette Glaze, which we loved. The colors are so vibrant and shiny. The art class following our clay project, we worked with the three primary colors of Crayola's Model Magic Clay. The kids had to create the secondary colors and make them into a bead of rainbows by adding them to skewer sticks. From there, we used pipe cleaners to add them to our plaques with a little pony bead in between! The art show 3D displays were set up in four parts: kindergarten plaques, the superhero displays, the pizza pillows and, my favorite, the Art Supply Store! After learning about the artist Lucy Sparrow, I had each of my first through 4th grade classes create an art supply. My third graders and some of my second graders created these crayons. Complete lesson and video here! One fourth grade class created these glue bottles and also made little pencils. This project was so easy, it was kinda crazy! Here's the lesson with video. Not only did we create these glue bottle sculptures but we also had to come up with a name for them! These were a hit at the show. First grade and the class of fourth who made the glue bottles created these cute little pencils! This is an easy and quick project that you can find more details on here. A couple of my other fourth grade classes created these tubes of paint! I'm telling you, creating these art supplies was not only fun but a great lesson on recycling as most of them were made with a toilet or paper towel tube base. You can find out more about this project here. One project I never got around to blogging about were the making of these second grade scissors and glue sticks. These were super fun and easy to make...my favorite part was reading what the kids decided to call their "product" and price it. And that wraps up our art supply store! Join me tomorrow and I'll take you on tour of the rest of the 3D displays of our art show...or watch the video for the complete tour.
