The Big Orange Splot

“My house is me, and I am it, and it looks like all my Dreams!”  We read together the book “The Big Orange Splot” by Daniel Manus Pinkwater and reflected on how our differences make us uniquely ourselves. Students then created their own dream houses, to reflect their dreams and personalities.

Some students mentioned an episode of Bluey on Disney Plus that has a dream house.  If you are interested in viewing it, its season 2, episode “escape.”

Another great read aloud about creative dream houses is “If I Built a House” by EB White or another title called “If I built a car” by the same author.

This is a wonderful project to each do as a family and make a neighborhood on the fridge! Conversational skills, creativity, fine motor, reading, and celebrating and respecting our unique interests!

All About Me!

Some of our people from this week! I’ll keep adding them as they come in!

 

 

Who Am Eye?

Can you guess who these eyes belong to??  As our collage projects come in, we reveal who they are! We are learning so much from each other about who we are, our interests, and the people and things we love!
