I’m not sure why I haven’t done this already, but I made an online slideshow of a selection of student photographs from Fall 2011 at Howard ODS. I’m hoping to put together a printed book of them so each student can have one. Additionally, Kim Silva acquired 8 digital cameras for ArtODS, and I made a cue card so that any staff member could teach with it. Cosmos, a PL at Howard, has already taught several photo recreations this session, and I’m so glad. Anyway, Old News! But now it’s on the internet.

This is a brilliant recreation that has been going on at Howard this session. All you need is string, some sticks, and a name for your vessel. And water to set sail upon!

Weasel leads students from Faulconer-Chapman school through this session’s water introduction. She asks them to think of what they already know a healthy body of water looks like and sounds like. Then they write these things down. Weasel then asks them to make a drawing of that healthy body of water using those things.

Once they are done drawing, she asks them to share with one another the similarities and differences in their drawings, and uses them to connect to what they’re about to experience learning in the field.
