more paper plate earths, but this time with sparkly gold paint added to the blue to make a sparkly green:
and now to show you what happened after all the earths were done:
most importantly, we’ll be outside this earth day…collecting trash, walking in the rain, noticing things.
happy earth day 2010. here was earth day 2009.

Oh, what a lovely thing to do for Earth Day. My third and fourth graders did some art work about “What the earth means to me” and we held an earth day assembly for school!
I just love the Earth Day Project and the kids were having so much fun! Great Work!!!!
oh, sher, awesome. the handprint sounds wonderful. next year i’m doing that.
Printed off the picture of your earth plates from last year and my students made them yesterday. First they painted one of their hands green and then painted around the hand print with blue.
Next we’re making these:

we had a massive rain storm that kept us in until the very end of the day…but we sure experienced the earth’s strength! : )
I love all the beautiful swirls of blue and green paint. And yes! Going outside is the best place to be on earth day!
