Book Updates! Check out my new children's book: "A is for Atom: Scientific Concepts for Young Minds" at our new website aisforatombook.com “A is for Atom” is an introductory book of scientific terms for young learners. We intend for this book to be a catalyst (pun intended) for readers and listeners alike, to engage in learning about scientific concepts together. We designed this book to allow children to grow with the content as both their age and curiosity about the world increases. Each term has a simplified definition in the glossary.

I have the pleasure of teaching our fifth graders for a few weeks now that they're done PSSAs and we have been focusing on printmaking techniques. I talked to students about Andy Warhol and Pop Art, and had them think of and design a printing plate that represents popular culture today. Before printing, we discussed the many types of families on the color wheel and I instructed students to choose four color papers that are analogous and to use ink that is complimentary to their paper. I pre mixed two tones of ink, so students could loosely interpret which complimentary pair to focus on. Almost every student completed four prints in one class!
