I just uploaded this new product on my website: Mixed Media 3D Tiki Masks! This is such a fun art project to make. It involves making your own texture paper using acrylic paints. Then using these handmade papers to add color and shapes to create a 3D tiki mask with corrugated cardboard. You've got to try this with your kids this summer.
This art lesson is perfect for students in grades 6th through 12th grade. Inside you will find step-by-step directions with photos and samples. Includes a Tiki Face Shape worksheet full of ideas and shapes students can use to inspire their own design.

This adorable, grumpy, squeaky, inflating amphibian is called an African rain frog. I fell in love with these cute frogs after seeing a video of one puffing up and squeaking. I had to make a unit study about it. Now you and your kindergarten through second grade students scan enjoy learning about this silly animal while covering all the core subjects: language arts, science, math, geography, and art.  I started working on this pre-covid. Life got busy, we decided to start our home remodel and now, a couple years later, I have finally finished unit study.

This download has lots of fun projects for you. Including a cute fictional story that I wrote and illustrated. Its called The Case of the Missing Hot Chocolate: An African Rain Frog Mystery. I sketched out the illustrations on paper, uploaded them to Photoshop, then added the color - such a fun project to create. I also include some worksheets to go along with this story where students will fine tune those language arts skill such as letter blends, contractions, suffixes, and reading comprehension. You will also find geography, science, math, art, reading, and writing worksheets and activities.

Many of us are plagued with sloppy handwriting. If this is you or one of your children, then I have the perfect remedy. My latest download should do the trick. With my Nice Handwriting PDF you can use the tracing practice sheets to help you hone in on those pesky penmanship problems. 

Whether it’s for a practical tune-up or for a therapeutic activity to do on a rainy – or sunny – day,  these worksheets will bring you hours of enjoyment. This playful handwriting doesn’t look like elementary writing worksheets. As adults or teens, we want a nice handwriting that has a sense of personal style such as, a slightly flourished “f” and a little tiny hook on the “t” and the “h.” I enjoyed using these worksheets myself to improve my handwriting and I know you will enjoy them too. The lines are college-ruled so you will be ready to transition to any lined paper or journal. There are a variety of worksheets for you to explore and use to improve your penmanship. Use the ones you like or use them all.
