“Praise isn't flattery. It's fuel. I point to the win…however small, because a student who can't see their own power won't take a real risk….And I need them to feel safe enough to try.”

3rd Grade Lessons, 4th Grade Lessons

My 4th graders really enjoyed this lesson. After tracing their hands and feet, they drew and colored themselves as astronauts. Then they painted the background black and used oil and chalk pastels for stars, planets, UFO’s, etc.

My student after drawing foreshortened image and coloring, he is now painting the background black, then will use chalk pastels for stars, planets, UFO’s, etc.
