Here is Mrs. Newcomb's Art Lesson for this week:

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend.  In honor of Memorial Day I have a quick poppy painting/drawing for you.  Poppies are a symbol for peace, sleep, and death.  They are an iconic symbol of honor for the sacrifice of our veterans.  You will need a piece of white paper, red, green, and black tempera paint, a paintbrush, and a bottle cap. You would first use a paint brush or q-tip to add your green stems. You could add some solid green at the bottom of your paper as well.  Then you want to pour a little bit of your red paint onto a paper plate or a flatter surface where you can dap your bottle cap onto it.  Place the bottle cap in the red paint and add your red poppies onto your paper.  Once you have a field of red circles, you could use a q-tip or your finger to add the black centers. 

As always, use whatever materials you have at home.  If you do not have paint you could always draw your flowers with crayons, or color them with markers.  You could even take it outside with some chalk art.  

Have fun and stay healthy. Have a great week.

Dear 2A Families,
     We are winding down toward the end of the year.  This Thursday would have been our field trip to Adventure Aquarium.  So, instead, we have found the best virtual field trip.  We will visit the San Diego Zoo!  We hope you enjoy it.
      I am so sorry for the internet problems last Thursday and Friday.  I hope and pray that this week will be a lot better!
      Since Friday is a half-day due to the Memorial Day weekend, I am cancelling our Friday Class Meeting.  I am also giving the option of taking the Spelling test on Thursday or Friday.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend:)  Enjoy - you all deserve a long weekend!

Here is Mrs. Newcomb's art activity for this week:

It is finally supposed to get warm out by the end of this week.  Why not get that sidewalk chalk out some more and create a bird.  This time of year the baby birds are chirping and getting ready to flee the nest.  The project below can be done on a piece of black construction paper (or outside)  The first step is to choose a color of chalk to start with.  Place a dot near the center of the paper.  From the dot draw lines going in an outward direction.  You can add more colors if you want, or just stick with one. Once you have plenty of "feathers" you can cut out two large white circles and two black smaller circles for the eyes.  Cut out an orange triangle for the nose and two orange hearts for the feet.  Glue everything on with a gluestick or liquid glue. And ta-da. Your Spring birdie is complete. If you want to, you could always draw this bird outside.  Instead of using paper for the eyes, nose, and feet, you could use objects from nature.  Maybe flowers for the eyes, sticks for the feet, and a leaf for the nose. Or you could always draw them too. Stay healthy and happy.  Have fun creating.  -- Erin Newcomb Art Teacher Have a wonderful weekend:)   ReplyReply allForward

Here is Mrs. Newcomb's Art Project for the week:

Tuesday is cinco de mayo (May 5th)! I love any holiday, especially one that involves food.  Cinco de mayo in my house is full of some sort of Mexican cuisine and crafts, along with zoom meetings of course. Cinco de mayo celebrates Mexican culture and pride.  In 1862 the Mexican army defeated the French in the battle of Puebla. I have included a link for a little more history about cinco de mayo. 

history link ---> https://www.ducksters.com/holidays/cinco_de_mayo.php Some other items that are common with Mexican culture are guitars and maracas, pinatas, sombreros, and there is so much more.  For this week, I would like you to make your own sombrero.  You will need several pieces of different colored paper, a pencil, scissors, and glue. First you will draw your sombrero shape on a piece of paper.  Think of a rectangle with rounded corners for the brim and for the top, add a rainbow shape.  From here, cut out small shapes from different colored pieces of paper.  You can cut long stips, and then cut them up to make squares or rectangles.  You could also make triangles out of the strips.  Cut out whatever shapes you want. Once all of your shapes are cut, use the glue stick to glue them to your sombrero.  You can make a pattern if you like.  If you do not have colored paper, you could always use any coloring utensil to decorate your sombrero. Have fun. Happy cinco de mayo. And Stay healthy. Also take a look on my main page for crafty ideas for Mother's Day. -- Erin Newcomb Art Teacher

WEEK FIVE


Dear 2A Families,
     Welcome back!  Hope you enjoyed the Easter break.  We are ready to get started again.  We can do this!
     I would like to add small group reading and math lessons starting this week.  Math lessons will be on Tuesday and Reading lessons will be on Thursday.  Here are the proposed times:
             12:30-1:00
                  1:00-1:30
                  2:00-2:30
                  2:30-3:00
I will send you an email telling you which group I have assigned you to.  If that time is not possible for you, please send me a note and I will make arrangements for you.  Our whole class meeting will move to Fridays at 1:00.

Also, students now have the ability to take AR tests from home.  I would like the children to read a book and take at least one test in their ZPD each week.  Their user name and password is on the inside of their Homework tablet. Passwords are lower case letters now. Here is the new URL:
  https://global-zone52.renaissance-go.com/welcomeportal/28629

(It has been updated on the SJB Symbaloo). Remember, you can find AR book levels using
www.arbookfind.com.  Your child may take a test on any book on the arbookfind list that he/she has not already taken a test on.  If you don't know your child's ZPD or need his/her user name and password, just send me an email.   I'd be
happy to help.

*There is a new site we are trying called myOn.  

The myON Shared Account includes thousands of engaging digital books, for both online and offline reading. Many of these titles also have Accelerated Reader quizzes, and multiple students can read the same book at the same time.  If you use the search tool at the top of the page, you can search for books with AR quizzes in your child's ZPD.

Login page: www.myon.com/school/readathome
School Name: Read at Home
Username: readnow
Password: myon

Hopefully, your child will be able to read many books on this site.

When your child logs in to Renaissance, he/she should hit the orange tab that says "Accelerated Reader" to take these tests.

Here is Mrs. Newcomb's Art Activity for the week:
 

Week 6 April 20-24 Earth Day   Genesis 1:20-23 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.  And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.  And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. I hope everyone enjoyed their Easter break. This week is special because Wednesday is Earth Day. During the days of creation, God created flying and sea creatures.  This time of year we are starting to see more birds out, maybe some bird nests and even baby birds. Fishing season has started as well, and baby sea creatures are being born.  This week we will be making our own birds nest. We will be working on our scissor skills and glueing.  This project involves construction paper, scissors, and glue.  If you do not have construction paper or glue, you may simply draw the project using paper, pencil, and whatever coloring supplies you have.  Materials needed: different colored construction paper crayons scissors glue Directions: Choose a background paper.  Using a crayon draw a large oval scribble.  You can use multiple colors here.  This is your nest.  Next, choose the color paper you want for you bird. You will need to cut out 1 large half circle, 2 small triangles - 1 for the beak and 1 for the tail, 1 small half circle for the wing, as many oval shapes for eggs, and as many leaf shapes.  Once all of your shapes are cut out, assemble your bird using glue.  If you are using liquid glue remember, you only need a dab. Glue the bird to your nest and add on your eggs and leaves.   After you have everything glued together (and dried) use a crayon or marker to add the eye and some texture for the feathers.  Remember when using scissors... never run with scissors always cut away from you move the paper, not the scissors Enjoy creating, stay healthy, and have fun.

WEEK FOUR
HOLY WEEK




Dear 2A Families,
     As we enter Holy Week, let us remember to continue to pray daily for an end to this virus.  Hang in there!  You are doing a fantastic job with the children.  With God's help, we will get through this.  We can do it together!
     Our next class meeting will be on Thursday at 11:00 to review Holy Week.

  4/6 Morning Announcements

Materials needed:
crayons
2 pieces of wax paper
hair dryer
scissors
 

* First, you need to create some crayon shavings.  You can use a crayon sharpener or with a parent's help use a pair of scissors to scrape the crayons.  * Assemble your crayon shavings on one piece of the wax paper.  You do NOT want big chunks of crayons. Spread it out like cheese on a pizza, not super thick.  It will spread as you melt them.  * Place the second piece of wax paper on top.  * Use a hairdryer with parent supervision to melt the crayons.  It will also melt the wax paper together.  * Once melted, you may cut any shape out that you want.  I suggest a cross since Easter is right around the corner.  I have included a picture of some raindrops created in the same way.  I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys their Easter break.  Stay healthy and stay happy. -- Erin Newcomb Art Teacher
