Arts and Crafts

Although I am vehemently anti-diorama (don't get me started), Trevor's green iguana project did turn out really well, and merited a proud pic.  Iguanas always make me think of Ecuador, so I loved helping him research this one.

I also have to share a new art project I tried with the class, that I am super happy with (not my original idea- borrowed from the internet).  We learned about Marc Chagall, and his love of letting things float, and blending reality and dreams.  We used pastels on brown paper, and I had the kids turn their paper after drawing each object.  Love.
