add a duct tape strap if too many rock start moves are happening, nearly breaking the instrument.

one year i might get brave enough to do something with u is for underwear, but until then i will stop at under.
you get the idea.
i suspended a piece of fabric across two shelves and used good old duct tape.
this provided a long stretch for children to crawl (or walk) under
since all our work was offered as “under the table” work, i took the chairs away for the week. this meant finding new places to eat snack!
no problem!
let me begin this post expressing gratitude that no. eyes. were. poked. out. ahhhhhh.
we drew ourselves under umbrellas (a great chance to see self-portrait work).
we played games under my big umbrella.
this is a basic find the item hidden in an egg, match it to the photcopied picture. some kids were shaking the eggs first to try to figure out which item it was.
we move into the hallway when we want hard floor or more space to work on.
or when we want to put on all our rainy weather gear for a fashion show.
we were given hundreds of HUGE coffee filters a few years ago. i fear we may finish them up this year. we used them with colored water (food coloring and liquid watercolors) and pipettes.
when they dried, we added the text strip: “here is my puddle, oh what a muddle.” the kids loved saying this as we looked through the completed projects.
with some of the extra rain puddles, we cut out letter U for our journals.
we did brainstorming (ha!) of what can happen in a storm. i imitated the sirens that go off every week in town (for testing or for severe weather). that was a funny time, alright. then we took the completed list to the colored water table and let it “rainbow rain” all over it!
with more of the extra rain puddles, we cut out flower shapes to adorn the classroom and hallway.
beautiful!
