when i was 13 i had a video of me eating beans off my stomach and i wonder where that video is now
Well...they weren't supposed to be "flaming flamingos" but since I do not have kiln at my school I have to bake my clay in the ovens. For some reason...one of the ovens was not working properly and my flamingos began burning...smoking...and yes at 2:59 pm just as students are getting on buses, lining up, going in 75 directions...yes, you guessed it. I set off the school fire alarm. :) Happy Days! (see part of the burned flamingo below). Needless to say the next day, yours truly won the Flaming Flamingo Award at school. On a serious note...my students have LOVED these. We began learning about 2 artist and their works. Audubon & Calder. I showed my students this you tube clip that gave them more information on John James Audubon. http://youtu.be/7gozLgMAq38 We looked at some of his art work and I asked them to be listening for answers to guided questions about the clip to give them a purpose for watching the piece. For example, Why does the lady have white gloves on in the video? How often do they turn the pages in the book? How many pieces did Audubon create? Next we compared Calder's Flamingo Sculpture to Audubon's work. Before they created their sculptures we need to know more about flamingos...so we read the book For Pete's Sake (see below) and did a labeling writing art piece to go along with our sculptures. Finally we were ready for the clay. You can see the steps below. Next week we are adding final touches, possibly a feather coming out the back...I just cant decide if I like it or not and glazing. Roll out a 6-12" snake to coil around like a snail. Fold the head backwards and press to make the beak. Pinch the tush to make the flamingo's pointed body. Use 2 long skinny sticks for the legs and create a solid base for the flamingo to stand on.

que' onda pronounced keh ondah (South American for 'what's up') Caribbean flamingo or American flamingo It's a plane, no.... It's a balloon, no.... It's a .... bird? Today we are having FLAMINGO FUN! Why? Because they look so silly! Because they come in pretty colors! Because they adore shrimp - like me! Besides, everyone needs at least one pink flamingo in their life, even if it is a plastic one! www.redfromsun.etsy.com "Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset? And he's carrying a beautiful rose in his beak, and also he's carrying a very beautiful painting with his feet. And also, you're drunk." - Jack Handy, writer, cast member of Saturday Night Live Now let me do some 'splainin'. This was one of only TWO quotes or poems I could find about flamingos. Not a lot of choices you might say. So, while I NEVER condone being drunk, take the quote in a light spirit and enjoy the imagery! Fun Flamingo Fact: A flock of flamingos is called a pat. A what? ....A pat. Well, I guess it's time to learn about the anatomy of a flamingo: I think it's the same for a plastic flamingo?

Cool! Side note: it's hard to find any decent vintage illustrations of flamingos! c.1911 Beautiful page of flamingo items for sale at the Celestial Seasonings Store: Lesser Flamingos, smaller than the others lesser flamingos, San Francisco More fun flamingo facts: The flamingo eats insects, crustaceans (shrimp and other shrimp-like animals), and tiny plants, like algae. The flamingo's bright pinkish color is due to its diet. The carotene from the shrimp in its turns its fleathers pink. If a flamingo's diet is low in carotene, the feathers become white. The flamingo eats by putting its head upside-down into the water looking backwards! (kids, don't try this a home) It takes in water that is rich in tiny organisms and filters nutrients from the water with a comb-like organ on its tongue. Hmmmm, maybe too much information.... GOOD NEWS! Plastic Pink FLamingos eat very little, if at all! And this next one is very easy to maintain, once you have mortgaged your house and your car and your kids! Flamingo, by Cartier's I don't think they got the colors just right however... but I'm willing to overlook that slight discrepancy!
