As part of teaching kindergartners, I get to indulge my creative side. Here are a few of my creations. :-)
The roses are my favorite. They're made out of folded leaves.
This one I made while still at school, so I had access to some of the raffia there. Eszter (one of the girls I occasionally work with) and I made them with the students.
I made this one while waiting to meet up with Keith and Eszti for coffee. I had some extra green yarn in my bag, so I wrapped the stems of the together to create a rose stem.This week (and part of last week), I've been sick. The tough part is...at the moment, I'm feeling a bit better...but about two hours after taking my antibiotics, I regurgitate them (vomacillin). So, I decided today was a good day to start decorating the flat for Christmas.

This is the window to our porch...if I took a head on photo, you would #1. see the reflection of the flash, #2. see me in my pjs and #3. see our laundry drying on the porch.
Family Fun magazine/website has some great homemade ideas too. In between naps, I was brainstorming crafts to do with my students. I think they could handle this one.We made one of those "helping hands" wreaths when I was there for .5 seconds (aka a full day yesterday)
We will NOT be making this star. It wasn't easy...or fun...or family friendly
I'm also trying to figure out what to give my students for Christmas. I'm thinking an ornament like this would be good...but I think I need a bigger ornament. Since the school is called, Ladybird, I thought it would be cute to draw a ladybird (aka ladybug for American-English speakers--people speak British-English here) and write the year or something.Any craft suggestions??
Those roses are so creative!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was younger, I liked the ornaments where I could put a picture in it....Most of the times it was my school picture from that year.
