Fun with Nouns,Volcanoes and Cherry Tree Blossoms.










Here we are at the custom rod and car show that we won tickets to. We learned alot about tires, friction, motion and wheels. We saw an auctioneer selling a car for a huge value and heard his odd lingo that was still understandable. We heard a jet fueled car roar and saw cars that looked like Bikes. We even checked out the 3D art display that was at the show.







We were inspired by art done by children that was displayed at the Leisure Center. They had used pink tissue paper glued onto trees to create a lovely collage of trees. Mary also has been veyr impressed by the beautiful trees and blossoms falling. We made our own trees from Construction paper and pink tissue paper. The children discussed blossoms on trees and how the trees are blossoming, before the fruit comes on the apple trees and on our cherry trees.




Learning about the Icelandic Volcano. We created our own lapbooks filled with Volcano inspired words , tissue paper used for Icebergs and Lava. We used Pastel paints and drew our own Volcanos . We learned about negative space and leaving it empty so that we could add another color and have it show nice and clearly.
