Here’s something fun: Hand Costumes. Trace your hand in a certain position that results in an animal shape and color in its “costume”! #preschoolpaintandplay #handart

Thank you @redtedart for a great math/art integration lesson today! Measuring and stitches per inch yielded some really cute triangle chickens! 🐓
So what exactly are corals? Corals actually comprise an ancient and unique partnership, called symbiosis, that benefits both animal and plant life in the ocean. Corals are animals, though, because they do not make their own food, as plants do. Corals exist at the tissue level: they do not have organs, such as a heart. ... Tentacles and sticky mucus help coral polyps trap plankton. Coral are simple animals in the same phylum as jellyfish. Each coral animal consists of an individual sac-like body called a polyp. A coral polyp has no eyes, ears, nose or tongue. A coral polyp also does not have a brain. In place of a brain the polyp has a nerve net. The nerve net goes from the mouth to the tentacles. INKTOBER
Art class @theivybookshop included making fancy museum style gold frames with dried noodles and spray paint. After the story: Anna at the Art Museum, the kids drew portraits of someone like them and someone different. Looking at other art and books we saw similarities and differences in physical characteristics, expressions and emotions, activities, age, and style. #outdoorartclass #childrensliterature #frameit #sameanddifferent
What a great first afterschool outdoor art class @theivybookshop ! We read “Anna at the Art Museum” - a story about how Anna doesn’t engage with the works of art (appropriately) until she sees herself. She says: That’s me! Or, I’m her! Her feelings were matched by a bored and grumpy girl painted by Mary Cassat. After “seeing herself” she could take it all in and loved the museum experience. This book suggests that being included, represented, understood, seen, felt, and heard needs to happen before and in order for engagement, understanding, presenting, seeing, empathizing, and listening to happen. We as teachers can make sure every kid sees him/her/themselves in art, literature, curriculum materials, the visuals on the walls, the people around them. #seetobe #empathy #engage #childrensliterature #artclass
