The day I broke my wrist, I set my mind on having a watermelon cast. Of course, I had to wait two weeks while I wore my splint/plaster hybrid cast. When deciding upon a cast, you get to choose from an assortment of colors. I've never done this, and I can be indecisive so I felt overwhelmed. Plus, I was alone as well as third in line for cast. Back to school time is very busy in orthopedics -kids getting injured at recess, football and soccer players, and teachers falling off tables...All this meant - wait time - which propelled me to Pinterest (top right picture), and the rest is reality!
My younger son, Andrew is the watermelon seed artist.
The best part ~ I can bend my elbow!
Every year each student brings in an unmarked envelope with a baby picture in it. Then I put the pictures out in the hall like this:

International Dot Day
On Dot Day, each student created a dot:
The student-created dots look nice around my new autumn tree in the hallway!
Have a wonderful week!
I love that baby picture idea! It might be even harder for people to guess once they're in middle school (which is the level I teach). Fun!

We did a baby picture activity like that for our staff once. We got write down our guesses and the person who got the most correct won a prize. It was really funny to what we looked like as babies!
ReplyDeleteI love the baby pictures for all school staff ~ fun idea!
