Good afternoon!
I know we desperately need the rain. Our yard has only needed mowed once since June, so I hope everyone is enjoying it, or at least finding ways to enjoy yourselves with it.
Small skill start-
Today we used toothbrushes to create a fur texture. I gave the students some other ideas about how you could use a toothbrush in painting. If time permits, I’d suggest having your kids look around the house for other things they could use to make different textures or patterns.
Painting together-
Today we painted a sloth family. Well, I did. Jeremiah deleted his baby.
Our verse for the day is Deuteronomy 6:6-7 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
There are so many verses about families that really impress the greatness of Gos and how we should desire to pass His goodness on to our children I’m sure we could all find at least a few that speak to our own hearts as well as to the young people we have been entrusted to raise.
At home practice-
Jeremiah and I used a brown from a tube, but brown is basically a dark orange. Spend some time and practice mixing browns so you can see the ways different colors play with each other. Remember, no color is bad, but some colors are better for the particular painting you’re working on than others. Don’t forget to label your colors for later reference!
