I loved it!!!

We had a great time today! The students worked on bioluminescent animals. We continued w/the theme: real imaginary combination The structure of the class was a little more rigid. Step1 pencil and paper outline ( 3 different papers offered) Step 2 add marker, stickers, glow in the dark tape Step 3 add glue in the dark paint After the artwork was completed, student volunteers washed the brushes while I prepared the wrap up: black lights and glow sticks. We had fun!

Great! Cool kids!!!!

Today I arrived early, learned a little about the students from the classroom teacher and together we walked to the rig area. We introduced ourselves, talked about favorite animals and looked at some images of animals as suggested by magic planner. We discussed materials such as stone, paper and string. We also thought about real, imaginary and if animals could be a combination of imagination and reality. The students were given a choice of large or small cardstock and were tasked with creating a favorite animal: real or imaginary. For the final 20 minutes we had a gallery walk, and used a hand held magnifying glass to see details in our work. The decided theme for next week involves glow in the dark animals. It was a great day! Thank you Grasshopper!
