Food Chains After watching the Study Jams video on the 6 different biomes, select 3 of the biomes and draw a food chain that could exist in each one. Your food chain needs to include AT LEAST the following:

• Sun • 1 producer • 2 consumers • 1 decomposer

You can always add more…for example, what could eat the bird in the example food chain below? Example…Biome: Deciduous Forest Food Chain 1 Biome: _______________ Food Chain 2 Biome: _______________ Food Chain 3 Biome: _______________

Now it is YOUR turn! Choose your FAVORITE meal (make it something different from the example above). Show the flow of energy of your meal, how does it go from the sun to what you are eating?? Take a picture when you finish and email it to your teacher!

Sun Grass producer

Grasshopper consumer

Bird consumer

Fungi decomposer

Pick PE Daily Challenges

Continue to log daily activity and fitness log and record you water consumption as well. You can send these logs into your teachers with your weekly assignments. Monday May 4 – Inner Jedi May the Forth be with You!!!! In honor of the Star Wars saga, feel free to dress up like your favorite Star Wars character and train like a Jedi. Today’s activity/Jedi training is using the force to listen to your “inner voice” to navigate the asteroid field. That’s right, you will need a blindfold, partner (parent, sibling, or friend) and several objects or “asteroids” that you can place across the room. The objective is to blindfold yourself or your partner. Then listening to your “inner Jedi” (your partner’s voice) have them guide you across the asteroid field/room, avoiding the asteroids and any other obstacles in the room. Make sure to focus on clear and explicit details/instructions. Use specific directions (left right, diagonally, forward backward), number of steps, kinds of steps (baby big, side). As always be safe, try not to crash into the asteroids, and get permission, and have fun. Tuesday May 5 – Tumbling Tuesday Today I want you to spend 15 minutes or so practicing rolls and tumbles. I will list and describe the rolls and tumbles I want you to try. Have fun!!! Log roll-lay on your side and extend arms and legs out straight. Roll on your side back and forth Egg roll-lay on your side ball up like an egg and roll around on the floor. Don’t let your egg crack. Stay curled up like an egg the entire time. Forward roll-make sure you have plenty of room so that you don’t roll into anything in the house. Out in the yard is a good place or on a trampoline too. While standing or squatting, place your hands on the ground in front of you. Tuck you chin and head. Support your weight on your hands while you push your body over your shoulders and roll over on back and to your feet. Be sure to be safe and have parent help if you need it. Cartwheel-stand, reach out and place one hand then the other on the ground in front of you. As you place your hands, kick your feet up and over. Then land back on your feet and stand up. The rhythm of the motions should go “hand, hand, foot, foot” Wednesday May 6 – Wheeling Wednesday This Wednesday is Wheeling Wednesday. Today I challenge you to get out and ride or skate on any equipment that has wheels. Bikes, scooters, skates, skateboard, rip sticks, hoverboard, unicycles, anything that gets you outside and on wheels (preferably ones that don’t have motors). Get your parents permission and make sure to wear appropriate safety equipment (helmets, elbow and knee pads, shoes and socks.). Practice to improve your riding skills or show off your skills but get out and ride!!!! Thursday May 7 – Fitness Today is a quick fitness challenge. All you have to do is complete the following 2 sets of the following exercises. That means do the following twice. Remember, work hard and have fun!!! 10 push ups 10 sit ups 10 squats 10 burpees

Friday May 8 – Flying Friday Today is Flying Friday. Find some object/s that you can make fly through the air. Frisbees and Paper air planes come to mind. Go outside and have fun. See how far you can make an object fly. See how high you can make it fly. See if you can make it curve or change directions. Can you land it in a specific place or position (in/on a target)? I will attach some templates for folding paper airplanes below. *remember you can modify each activity and use various types of equipment for each activity.

PICK ELEMENTARY PE Checklist from Coach Cooper Print or keep a record on notebook paper! Fitness component; Students are asked to spend 15-20 minutes a day participating in Physical Activity. Keep in mind the 15 minutes of play is the minimum required, students and families may wish to set a higher amount of time (60 minutes is a great goal). Track your total time of activity each day by logging in the number of minutes spent doing any activity. If your activity is not listed below, fill in at the bottom. Add up the number of minutes each day and see if you reached your goal.

Nutrition component; Students and families can also set a goal of staying well hydrated and making healthy food choices. Try to drink 8 glasses of water a day. Check off each box for each glass of water you drink.

Glasses of water Monday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Tuesday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Wednesday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Thursday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Friday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Saturday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Sunday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Health component; Remember sleep is an important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and helps the body’s immune system work more efficiently. Make sure to get 8-10 hours of sleep each night. Also remember screen time should be limited before bedtime as the blue light that is emitted from these screens can delay the release of sleep-inducing melatonin, increase alertness, and reset the body's internal clock (or circadian rhythm) to a later schedule.

Printmaking Home Style Collagraph Prints

What is a collagraph? It is a type of printmaking. A Collagraph PRINT is one made from a PLATE collaged with different textures. You can use a base plate of cardboard or the reverse side of another type of plate. Collage (Remember that word from art class? It means to glue) your plate with texture by gluing on recycled items that you cut out of cardboard.

I tried regular liquid glue and glue stick to make a plate. The liquid glue made the cardboard curl up and I had to place something heavy on top of it to dry it flat. The glue stick allowed me to work right away. Either way works just depends on your time and how long you can wait J.

This week we will explore shapes again from recycled materials. Find a box from cereal or some snack. Cut the box open and lay it flat. Make your PLATE (the part of printmaking where the artist creates their art onto a base/plate) by cutting a rectangle or square from the cardboard that is about 5” x 5” or 6” x 6” but don’t go too big.

I used the plain cardboard side so I could ‘see’ it better. Now, use the remainder of the material to create any other shapes you need to make an image you’d like to have. Some ideas: butterfly, heart, sailboat, car/truck, animal, flowers, etc.… Glue the shapes to the PLATE.

Once the PLATE is dry, you are ready to make a PRINT. These will be done with the pealed crayons like we used to do the texture

rubbings in another lesson. Take a sheet of copy paper, fold it in half (hamburger fold) and place the plate inside and cover it with the top.

Rub the colors of crayon by placing it on its side. You will rub it across the top of the paper (the plate is under this paper) and you’ll quickly see the image. Layer the colors as you wish. You can also go back and draw or add more details with the crayons.

These PRINTS can be made into cards to give to family members, neighbors, or friends. You can make as many copies as you wish.

Here are some other variations and PLATES I made.

Use these ideas to make many collagraph prints/copies and have fun sharing them with other people! Send me pictures of your art! I love to see them. Mrs. Hames
