Fruit Toss

By
Inspired by our caterpillars, I made this fruit toss game out of a box I got at the supermarket. I used a tea box to make the fruit and glued bottle caps onto them to make them easier to throw. I decorated the box with my caterpillar and more fruit and added a question I wanted students to be able to answer. The students have to be able to toss the fruit into the hole at the top of the box which is supposed to be the caterpillar's mouth. They have to count how many fruit they were able to get into the hole and tell the class. I showed the game to my goup and invited  them to make one themselves with their families. I'm saving mine to take to school and play with my class when we all finally go back.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas!!

By
 Last days of class and everything is Christmasy! I used paint and markers to liven up my students' paper portfolio envelopes with a holly ribbon. The kids loved them! They then added their own Christmas theme decorations to their portfolios. We also made holiday bookmarks which were pretty easy to make with leftover craft paper from the year. And look who I got to take a picture with at the mall! 🎄

Easter Part 2

By
Here's one more craft I did with my 4th-graders. They dipped their fingers in paint to make the little bunnies or eggs. We did the paint one day and the next day after the paint was completely dry, they added the details and wrote "Happy Easter"!  We folded half of a craft paper in half so it could stand up on a table. I had told them they could use it to decorate their houses for the holiday. This was fast and easy.

My Best Shot

By
Back to school for our second semester. Of course, we talked about what the kids did on their vacation. We brainstormed everything people do while on vacation and put all their ideas on the board. Next, I asked them to think of one of their best moments and imagine they had taken a photo of it. Then, we folded half of a white sheet in half, they drew their cameras and on the inside they had to draw their "photo" and write a sentence about it using the past. The sentence had to start with, on my vacation I_____. Last, we added string to their cameras so they could hang it around their neck like a real photographer and each student got to present their work to the class.
