1st and 2nd graders' Magic Carpets

1st and 2nd graders practiced drawing wavy, zig-zag and broken lines while dreaming up places they would fly on their magic carpets. They also learned out of double knot and earned beads whenever they got it right! Many students did not want to go far on their magic carpets. Six Flags, Chuckie Cheese, and the movies were all popular destinations.

Fernwood meets Harold

After reading the book "Harold and the Purple Crayon", K and 1st graders put their own purple crayon into action. Some of the students had already met Harold from the HBO family series about Harold and his crayon. I didn't know about the show until the students TAUGHT ME :-) Here is a link to the show: HBO Harold

Max and the Wild Things come to Fernwood

The Lower Grades read the book "Where the Wild Things Are" in celebration of the movie coming out in theaters. They made a collage of their own Wild Thing. They learned how to draw stripes and feathers, and their Wild Things rolled their terrible yellow eyes, showed their terrible claws, and mashed their terrible teeth. I dressed up as Max on Halloween...I make a great Max, don't I! I learned my mischievous smile from my students :-)
