Thanks for your kind comments. I will post some more details aboutnthe project. I have a pic of the traced values the kids did before they painted. All the six graders did this. I have an extremely talented group this year. But some do not get it and struggle. Ive enjoyed looking through your blog and the tips you have for other teachers. I like the most popular post sidebar as well.
