Giddyup!

Our little ponies are headed to Concord tomorrow to visit the state house and the Pierce Manse.

Two Headed Trout

We've been observing trout in our classroom (thanks to New Hampshire Fish and Game).  Today, when we observed, this is what the kids saw under the Ken-A-Vision:

March Madness

It gets to that point in the season when you go a little mad and then this happens:

Several slices of the pie make a whole!

 Here's the class eagerly awaiting the painting instruction!

 With slightly diluted LIQUID watercolors, students followed instructions to make the sky.  6 stripes of black...pass the dish.....6 of blue with 1 overlapped...pass the dish and so on...

 We're very good at sharing and passing!  We only had one spill!

 Our three moon girls were very particular about getting their background all lined up.

Almost there!

We couldn't wait to see how it would look hanging up all in a row!

 Here we are drawing our trees using Sharpie marker to outline and then BLACK liquid watercolor (not diluted) to fill in.

 This is the teacher's sample.  We do things best when things are modeled for us!

TA DA! - THOUGH - it's even better in person.  We'd love to tell you about how we MADE the moon...

Rockin' and Readiin'
