Moving Paper Fish: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish! Kids craft idea.

A while back I saw a great Chihuly lesson posted on The Crayon Lab blog (here). I've seen quite a few Chihuly inspired art lessons on the web, but I liked the simplicity of using rubber bands to hold the coffee filters on paint bottles before spraying starch on them. I pretty much followed the steps in that lesson, except I didn't have enough paint bottles, so we used plastic cups from Smart & Final (seems like I've been living there lately!). I also showed the kids a slide show loop that is…

These fabulous paper mache hot air balloons have sparked a few ideas to go along with the 2012 Mutual Theme: “Arise and shine forth, that thy light may be a standard for the nations” Doctrine and Covenants 115:5. * Paper Mache Hot Air Balloons found here * New Beginnings Hot Air Balloon theme When introducing the YW Values I envision a young woman either holding up a Hot Air Balloon in the color of the value - maybe even having the value on the balloon itself - and after explaining the value…

Way back in freezing cold January, I wrote a blog post called Teaching Vocabulary. In it, I shared with you some new approaches I've been taking to introducing words in the art room.

5 and 6 year olds. The children really got involved in this project. As you can see, some have been more prolific than others. The idea came from art-actually.blogspot.co.nz It is very simple.

I gave them glue sticks which by the next morning had secured the little tubes quite nicely onto the card.
