It's Happy Easter Time Once More!

By

Here are two super simple Easter crafts you can do with different ages. In the first craft, I made a bunny shape out of cardboard and glued on a plastic bottle top to use as a grip for a stamp. Just either paint the front of the bunny or dip it into a little paint from a plate and stamp a paper. Let the paint dry, glue the little tail on and have the kids write Happy Easter. And you're done. 
In the second craft, I cut a small strip of paper and folded it in the middle so it would stand up. Next, I dipped my finger in a little bit of paint and stamped  the paper four  times. Let the paint dry and draw either bunnies or eggs and write Happy Easter. These are crafts you can do in one class if you don't use too much paint so everything dries fast. And you're done again.

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! 🎄

My Little Garden

By
Based on a story my fourth-graders read in class about a girl who wanted a garden in her small apartment, I had the class think about what a garden needs. Students first wrote what a garden needs to grow strong and glued this paper with their answer on the back of a green paper. They then made flowers and stems to create their garden. We folded 2 slips of paper to make the stem so the flowers would pop off the page. It was facinating to see how each garden, despite having the same elements, was so diferent.

How are you today?

By
No matter how old my students are, we always start the class by me asking them how they are, or sometimes them asking each other. To help with this opening routine, I made this feelings wheel and now when I ask my fourth-graders how they are, they use a clothespin to attach to the image of how they are feeling. Recently, I've been choosing a mini-teacher and they have to choose 3 students and ask them how they are. They then show the class the student's answer on the feelings wheel and ask the class how he or she is. The class has to give a complete answer, he or she is excited, for example. In a classroom where I can't use screens, this wheel has been a great helper.
