Happy Fourth of July
I am usually on Saint Simons Island for the fourth of July. Saint Simons has fireworks going off from several spots on the beach and from the pier. It is a fantastic display if you can position your self to see most of the fireworks and Jekyll Island's display and there is another one off in the distance.
I am working on creating art projects organized by grades. My first one is posted on TPT. Here's the link: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Art-Projects-for-First-Grade-Bundle-3227204

Summer Art
It's summer time and the living is easy! I wish... There have been two too many deaths so far- Gregg Allman was the first. He was buried here in Macon and the fans all partied. Unfortunately one of my former art students (now a grown young man) ingested something that took his life while asleep. A lot of folks had drug overdoses and a few have died from fake opioids. The young man's family is suspicious that he may have taken one.
On a happier note my grand children have gone one week to a Roman Catholic School's summer camp and have absolutely loved it! The camp is 6 weeks long and is themed based. The theme this year are Luaus and Hawaii. They have studied volcanoes and will create them this week. Last week they learned how to hula and made leis. They also go on field trips and visit a water park each week.
Learning can be fun!
I have created some new products:
One is a coloring workbook based on the color wheel which I use to teach children how to make colors not mud!

Another product is making a color wheel triangle for preschoolers through first grade.

Both of these will be 50% off starting on Monday and ending Tuesday night.

Memorial Day Art
Memorial Day is coming soon. Being from the South my grandparents always called it Yankee Memorial Day because there is a Confederate Memorial Day but I don't even know when that is! According to Google there wasn't a separate Confederate Day so maybe I'm not remembering things correctly or my grandfather was a little mixed up.
Even though we are supposed to be honoring those military personnel who gave their lives for us I still think of my father. He didn't die in battle but was a p.o.w. in World War II. He was in Stalag 17 which a movie and a play was based on. There were rumors that Hogans Heroes was a comedy based on Stalag 17 but those were not true.
So if you would like to use some red white and blue patriotic papers before hand, check out this product by clicking on the link:

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Before I retired I loved it when the parents at my school brought in goodies to the workroom. Some of us specials would roam the three workrooms looking for the best treats! Then the parent group took over and got organized. They started bringing in the same dishes for each workroom. It quit being fun!

Saint Patricks Day
If you are here in the South, particularly Middle Georgia, you are already experiencing Spring. The azaleas are blooming. Our cars are covered with yellow pollen. Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday already. That means Saint Patricks Day is not far away. Wear your green or you will be pinched! Children love it!
There is an easy drawing lesson for Saint Patricks Day with a little interesting history about leprechauns, pots of gold, and rainbows in my store. click on the link:
