Other Crafty Goodness

I want to make this paper chandelier from Simple Joys.

I’d also like to try making some paper wrapped beads.

The washi taped wall in this beautiful Constellation Nursery is a brilliant idea. I might do something similar if I ever get to teach an infant class again.

And though I don’t have a kid the right age for this Hexbug painting activity, I had to include it because robots. Robots are neat.

Homeschool

And for my actual kid, I finally found a useful YouTube video for teaching sentence variation. It uses a passage by Gary Provost that both teaches and demonstrates the use of different kinds of sentences. It reminds me of that poem Samuel Coleridge wrote to help his son to remember the different kinds of meter in poetry.
