February 4

Chickety China, the Chinese Chicken
So we're about to study China. And India. But more China because that's what this post has to do with. We always do art on Fridays at the end of the day (because art is nonexistant in the classroom nowadays). This week's had to do more with math and such, but they bought it.

We messed around with tangrams for a bit. We talked about what they were, played with some tangram puzzles, and then I let them create some figures with at least of 5 of the pieces. This project always makes me giggle, just seeing what they come up with.

"[My] Smile"

"Hot Dog Shak" (not sure...)

"Candle"

"Sun"

"Bird"

"Swan"

"Smiley Face With Sideburns and a Hat"

"House and Garden"

Bob Dancin' Disco... Whoo!"

Top "A Diner"; Bottom "Turtle"

"Guy With Hat"

And, because I always have one who thinks outside of the box... "Rocket Man"
