Snowing in our classroom

At an arts & crafts fair over the summer, I saw an art technique that I’ve been wanting to incorporate into my classroom – rolling marbles in paint!  It might be too early for snow in late November, but not for these kids!  They had lots of fun rolling a marble in white paint over their blue paper, as they created their snow globes!

We also created snowmen and pasted these inside our snow globes. I love how each and every one is so unique!  The circle templates were drawn by me for them to cut out, but most kids chose to cut out their own hats and carrot noses.  You’ll have to come look at the bulletin board in the hallway to see the rest of the snowman snow globes!

The Mobile Dairy Classroom Experience

Daisy the Cow

Today, Daisy the cow and the Mobile Dairy Classroom visited our school.  Daisy is 6 years old (which is equivalent to our 60 years old) and weighs 1600 pounds!  The amount of food she eats in a day is equivalent to us eating 1375 bowls of cereal!  We saw a milking demonstration and milk was pumped into a milking jar.
