a). I had no idea that salt would have that effect on watercolor pictures! I really liked that, and definitely plan to use that in the future...maybe for a beach scene? I also saw the different effects that different brushes can have on the watercol…
Ingrid,
What a fun way to integrate science! I really enjoyed this lesson and I can totally see using this with my children and students some day. There is so much history that you could go into with this lesson, and there are so many myths and lege…
Here's my Reading Reflection!
I'm so sorry about it being late. My computer will not connect to the internet for some unknown reason, and I rely on my roommate's computer to use/post anything on the internet. Now that she's back in the apartment for…
My reading response will come soon! :)
a.. What three characteristics do you like about your artwork?
1. I loved being able to add depth and dimensions to my art work. 2. The permanent markers on the silver tin make for really bright and brilliant…
Rita: This is such a cool idea, and I would’ve liked more time to see it through. This would be an exceptional project for this time of year. I liked how you integrated this with math and angles, but it seemed a little bit of a stretch for this part…

Katie!
Wow! Adding technology to your lesson, what a great idea. Takes me back to our WebQuest days last semester! ;) For younger grades that aren't as computer literate as the older grades, you could easily adapt this lesson so that you could show…
Lindsey,
What a creative lesson! I was slightly confused what subject this sequencing pertained to....kinda figured that it was either Math or Writing, but couldn't be sure since I didn't hear you specify. You really went all into this project by cr…
What a great idea Molly! I have to say that this was probably my favorite art product of the day. Maybe because I put the most effort into it, haha! If You Give a Parrot a Parachute is something I'd really like to continue now that I've started it!…
Aly,
VERY fun way to integrate social studies and culture into a younger classroom! The primary grades would absolutely love this. I probably would have been happy with just a plain old rain maker, but your addition of the symbols was perfect! I mig…
