Happy Canda Day from A Special Kind of Class. For my fellow Canadians, I hope you have a relaxing fun filled day.
Scuba Diving Fun!
Hello All!
It has been SO LONG since I have posted here on Blog Hoppin' and I apologize for that! No excuses for me except that life sometimes gets in the way and we have to make room for the little hiccups that occur every so often! Anyway, I thought that I would share a quick and easy project that my students did during our Ocean unit at the end of the year. We live in the middle of corn and soybean country in Central Illinois, so oceans, scuba diving, and snorkeling are not visually present around here! :) But that didn't keep us from imagining that we were floating in the ocean, enjoying the animals and plant life that make the ocean their home! This project was one of many that we did and I can't say that it is my original idea because I have been teaching for so long that sometimes the ideas in my head blend with the ideas that have been there since I started! BUT even if this is not my original idea, I spruced it up a bit and made it cute and fun! Plus it is easy, easy, easy to prepare and there is no cost at all to do it, so that makes it even more fun! Even though we probably made snorkelers instead of scuba divers, we still discussed the differences between them and you can find real life pictures of both in my "Let's Make a Scuba Diver" packet. If you click my blog button, you will be taken to my blog post with more details about our scuba diving fun. If you click the product image, you will be taken to the free download in my TPT store! Happy Summer!
