Introducing a curriculum provided by the Japan Temari Association (Tokyo). These digital courses use my book Temari Techniques as the text, purchased separately. Each course text is an instant download from Etsy. The videos are too large for Etsy, so I will send you a link to download the videos after you make your purchase. Contact me by message through Etsy about any of the courses or videos. I'm always happy to help. SO This course is suitable for sale all over the world - no postage needed! Level 1 - Beginner Course Part 1 (Honka Shuuryou). It includes a text (pdf) that is 44 pages long. Also included are videos to support the lessons that total about 1 hour and 12 minutes. The videos are mp4. There is no kit supplied with the course. Please purchase your own supplies as given in the patterns. I work with students individually and am available for feedback and questions from you by email. 1. Get organized and gather your supplies. Read about threads and other supplies for making temari. Learn how to make a ball, stitch free embroidery and basic stitching. Learn how to keep a temari notebook to record your projects using the new Temari Workbook. Download a copy of the Temari Glossary. 2. Easy marking and stitching: wrapped bands. 3. Stitch a square design on a simple 4 and simple 8 division. 4. Stitch the very popular 5-point star (hoshi) on simple 10 division. 5. Spindle stitching - stitch one or several, layered or interlocked. 6. Kiku herringbone stitching - basic technique for the classic temari design. ++++++++++++++++++++++ In late June of each year, JTA judges gather to evaluate students' work and award certification at one of four levels. We work with the head of the international group of JTA members (Chidori Temari Group) throughout the year to prepare temari and patterns to submit for judging. Barb is retired from assisting students through the certification process. Anyone can still take her online courses and enjoy them without persuing certification through JTA. If you'd like to pursue certification, contact Barb to find a sponsor. Level 1 Basic (Honka) Certification Good execution of stitching is the important thing about this level. You can apply for this level after one year of temari study, having successfully mastered techniques learned in Barb's Level 1 course. By this time, you will have completed 20 - 30 temari. You can apply for levels 1 and 2 at the same time (if you have completed both courses or have equivalent experience). When applying for Level 1, you submit one photo of superior quality for each: Simple 4 division temari stitched in squares (shikaku) Simple 6 division temari stitched in tri-wing or trefoil (mitsubane-kikkou kagari) Simple 8 division temari stitched in merry-go-round (jyouge douji kagari) Simple 12 division temari stitched in kiku herringbone (uwagake chidori kagari) Level 2 Advanced (Koutouka) Certification For Level 2, excellent stitching quality is important as well as being able to communicate to someone else how you stitched the temari in your pattern. You should have completed 40 -50 temari before applying for L2. Using current JTA vocabulary is very important. All patterns are written in English using popular tranlations used by most temari stitchers. The JTA does not require you to write in Japanese. The temari designs do not have to be your original work so only your technical proficiency is judged, not design. You can learn the many skills for making these more advanced temari and learn how to write patterns using JTA vocabulary in Barb's Level 2 course. Learning to write patterns is also very important in keeping a notebook of your stitching, with directions, diagrams, and photographs. When applying for Level 2, you submit photos of superior quality and written directions (in English) with diagrams for: Three combination 8 division temari Three combination 10 division temari New in 2016: The judges look at your photo and diagram. They see the English text and rely on your teacher's recommendation that it is worthy of passing. Your pattern text will not be translated into Japanese. Level 3 Teacher (Shihan) Certification This is one of the most challenging levels and may be applied for two years after receiving Level 2 certification. You are required to design eight original temari and write the patterns. Since upon successful completion, the JTA will certify you as a teacher, you should submit temari that demonstrate a wide range of divisions, markings, and stitching techniques, with intricate and more challenging designs. Three of the temari you make are mailed to the JTA for them to keep and use as examples and for sale to support the organization. Or you can request to have them mailed back to you. Level 4 Master (Kyoujyu) Certification Six original temari and patterns should be submitted for the JTA to keep. All work needs to be of superior quality. You can apply for this level three years after receiving Level 3 certification. When you apply for this level, you work directly with the head of JTA Chidori Temari group (for international students). ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆ The Artist Barbara B.

Science Picture of the Day is a critical thinking activity where students practice analyzing, inferring, and observing real life science in photographs. Targeted skills include making observations and growing scientific vocabulary. The goal is for students to observe science in our everyday lives. These pictures each represent at least one branch of science – physical science, earth science, and life science – and can be utilized for nearly any topic of study in the science curriculum. Regardless of what grade level or content you are studying, students should be able to recognize many examples of science in all pictures. This meets the common core standards of RI.1 (Inference, Key Details and Informational Text) along with SL.2 and 4 (Key discussion and use of vocabulary). Furthermore, this open-ended activity is a great way to get your students to think deeper and more critically. I have provided an answer key for each picture prompt, but the science seen in these pictures are not limited to my answers, as there are many aspects of science in our daily lives. Be sure to have students justify their reasoning, and how deep you go with the science concepts is up to your discretion.

This BUNDLE contains Sew STEAM Levels 1-4, which provides weekly lessons for an entire year (i.e. 1 lesson per week, 2 levels per semester). Save 20% by purchasing all 4 levels. The Sew STEAM curriculum aims to engage students in science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) through sewing. Students will learn to apply an element of design and engineering to their sewing projects, while building on their math and science knowledge in a creative environment. Teachers do not need any experience instructing STEAM programs, but should have confidence using a sewing machine, and the ability to teach students basic sewing techniques. Sewing machines are required to teach this program (one machine per 2-3 students works well). A student teacher ratio of 6:1 is ideal. A competent assistant is highly recommended for groups >8 students. The Sew STEAM curriculum is designed for grades 3 through 7. Students begin with the basics and advance to more complex sewing tasks, from sewing a straight line to hand appliqué and gathering fabric. Projects can be customized to involve an element of design by the student. Sew STEAM is modular based, comprising 4 levels. Each level will provide ~12 hours of class, perfect for a weekly after school class (i.e. 2 h/day for 6 wks or 1.5 h/day for 8 wks). An example of a 6-week lesson plan is provided with each level. The curriculum is flexible and if running a shorter program, not all the activities and projects provided need to be included. Conversely, if students complete their activities early, STEAM topics may be expanded upon, and/or hand sewing details may be added to projects. Students will receive one or two STEAM handouts each lesson. The handouts should be discussed and completed during the initial 15-30 mins of the lesson. The remaining time is used to work on sewing projects, which will enhance and reinforce knowledge and skills covered in the handouts. Students will typically complete 2-3 projects per level. Three sewing patterns are included with Levels 1-3. An ‘easy’ commercial garment pattern (not included with this curriculum) should be selected for Level 4 to enable students to acquire additional skills in garment sewing. Examples include, Simplicity © Learn to Sew, Kwik Sew © Kwik and Easy. What’s Included with this BUNDLE?
