Crayon Sorting Helpers

Brought some more helpers to our room today. My mother-in-law Jane and great aunt Gail, visiting from Illinois, joined my ever popular helper, Aaron (my youngest son) to assist in more bulletin board creations and various odd jobs, while I met with some wonderful school colleagues.  They separated crayons by color for the students to easily replace the colors they need. It's getting closer.  12 more days until we start the art!!!

Color Wheel Extraordinare

Right before leaving for vacation, I finished a giant color wheel for our classroom that is almost 5 feet across.  Students will be able to bring items from the world around them that match the color wheel.  My hope is for students to recognize that there are many color combinations, tints, shades & values all around them if they just stop and look. Now to get it hung up in our room......

Art Studio almost ready!

Making progress in our classroom.  Had help from my son, Aaron, and Ms. Brant putting up bulletin boards, adding chair/table sliders "stilettos", filling supply buckets, hanging table group color splats, etc.  Getting even closer to filling our room with Polser friends.  Not a lot of time left to wait!

 Just waiting to display our creativity!

Supplies to help us get started :)
