I didn't do anything for the 4th, Lexington closes down the back streets and has a big festival but I didn't go down, I drove down there and it looks crazy.
Oddly, I'm okay with humid heat, since I won't wake up feeling parched. I handled it pretty well in Chicago. It was crazy the other night, I came home from work at 9pm and it was still 113 degrees. Ick
it is my second favorite movie of all time and second favorite to quote - my favorite is called dream for an insomniac and it stars ione skye and mackenzie astin - fabulous film if youve not yet seen it!
thanks - i try to attempt new things in my classroom each year. the use of recycleable materials is really an important way of teaching children that they can get multiple uses from so many things, and that art is about expression, not the fancy materials used to make art. the books i got the curriculum ideas from are Beautiful Stuff - Learning wth Found Materials and Designs for Living and Learning. I would love any materials you could collect and pop in a box to send to me - I'm always looking for donations
And my sympathies.
