Slime and Art

Elyana has been really enjoying the programs they have been doing at church lately. One of them used a neat slime recipe. Each age group was given a story from the bible. They were asked to make a picture of the slime to represent the story.  The program they are doing now gives each group a bag of miscellaneous props.  They have 10 minutes to assign rolls and figure out how to use each of the props in a skit.  It has been so neat seeing my shy Ellie hop up on stage to be silly and yet is learning bible stories.  We got the slime recipe and she has been playing a lot at home with it. She discovered that you can blow into it with a straw and inflate it.



This year I have cut back my hours so I am only teaching art (which is one morning a week). Here is a picture of my bulletin board at school that I finished the day before school started. I decided I needed a new sign to point parents in the right direction of my class. I painted an ocean picture (inspired by my trip to Florida). I can't wait to start to paint more. I want to paint two more to put in my girls beach-themed bathroom.
