You remember these BME charts we did yesterday...
and today we did our quilt from...
I didn't particularly like the full craft that was in the book, so I kind of changed things and made it my own..but I definitely used it as my inspiration....
(notice a few lovelies haven't finished their buck-skin Indian art)
They painted their sunset on one square....
and did Indian writing/drawings on the buck-skin.
The sunset was not in the directions to do - it was supposed to be some bead thing..
A) I didn't have the beads on hand
B) I liked the painting of the sunset idea MUCH better :)
Underneath, they wrote about their favorite part and drew a picture,
and this wasn't in the directions to do either - I changed this too...lol
In other news, I brought the chicks home for the weekend....
and Pete has taken his post - the chick guardian...
I have more to post, but technology is getting the better of me! grrrr...
Ok - I am running out the door now - time to spend some time with my girls!!

I love that story, I haven't shared it with my kiddos yet. We have been so busy with Nocturnal animals we haven't had time for other things. I love the pic of your dog and the chics, so sweet:)

Your quilt is fantastic! Have a great weekend :)
What?! My head just exploded! I didn't know scholastic has a quilt book! I made mine up. That's so crazy. Now I need to go check that out.
I like your literature quilt! I bet they loved the blank canvases! We are doing our indian paintbrush book study this week!
Hi Jen:
I have always loved that book. Even my sixth graders will sit through it--which is surprising because their minds are tuned to accept only video games...
I love the Chick Guardian! How cute that Pete takes his job so seriously.
Happy almost VACATION!

Finding JOY in 6th Grade
The "Legend of Indian Paintbrush" is a captivating story that beautifully illustrates the interplay between nature and art, reflecting the cultural significance of the Indian paintbrush flower. This tale, often seen as a metaphor for creativity and inspiration, emphasizes the importance of following one’s dreams and the connection between the artist and their environment. It resonates deeply with those who appreciate storytelling, much like the rich narratives found in Indian dramas and films available on platforms like APNE TV. Such stories not only entertain but also enrich our understanding of cultural heritage and the arts.
