This week we are learning all about those cute little Easter critters!! I purchased a huge spring writing packet from Hope King. Her packet inspired this cute little rabbit below. This is our little rabbit that's going to get our brains going on our schema of rabbits! I will be writing down student schema on sticky notes and placing them to the left of the rabbit. Then, we will be organizing information into subtopics. I have headers that I will be placing on our anchor chart (belly, cloud and right side of rabbit). We are reading this booklet I created to find out information about rabbits and review some text features. This will help us organize our thoughts because we will really be focusing on our headers! This week we are also digging into UE and EW Stations and making something I call BLUE GEW! I can't wait to make this stuff with my kids!! Hopefully it helps them remember their new phonics skill!! I haven't done a giveaway in forever and so I thought, "Hey, let's give this packet away!" Enter BELOW!! :) - Easy Peezy Lemon Squeezy! a Rafflecopter giveaway Here are my visual plans for this week! Here are some of my stations for this week! (I meant to take a lot more pictures...but, I got wrapped up in organizing instead) This is from my TEACHING MONEY ACTIVITY PACKET. This is one of the word work activities for this week that my students will be doing. They're going to be so excited!! This is from, ""What's That Blue Gew" - EW & UE Phonics Packet. This is from my spring literacy stations packet that is not yet finished... I hope it will be by Wednesday! Life has been really busy with wedding and job search stuff so creating has went on the wayside for now. :( I hope your have a fabulous week!

Paisley Rabbit Book Cover Watercolour and Gouache 42 x 55cm There was a bit of a gap in-between finishing the cover illustration and designing the layout for the book cover. I completed some other illustrations for the same book, and then returned to the above illustration and created some draft layouts to share with the writer and publisher, Steve Richardson. Four cover mocks up to choose from. Together we came up with four basic designs and then decided to ask the online public to vote for their favourite. We had a wonderful response, especially on Facebook. In the end the clear winner was layout D, which pleased me even more because that was also my favourite design. Rough layout 'D'. Steve and I agreed to follow the 'market research' and run with layout D. I took the basic design and started to play around with the text colour, from black to blue, then eventually to a dark brown. Hand drawn and painted text blocks. I mainly concentrated on the text blocks (or boxes). I wanted to make them feel much more organic, in keeping with the illustration. So I began to produce some hand drawn and painted versions of the text boxes and then I introduced them to Photoshop to tidy them up, and in the pencil versions - add colour. I went through lots of trial and error. The pencil lines, when coloured, looked messy and they didn't create a strong enough edge to compete with the illustration sufficiently. I opted to work with the painted text block and tried varying the corner designs. I felt square cut-aways looked too harsh and in the end I worked up some quarter-circle cut-aways to replace them. The final cover design. Here you can see the finished cover design, complete with painted text block and quarter-circle corners. You can also see that I tweaked the amount of foliage covering the edges of the title block and I added some leaves to the bottom block. I also tagged a drop-shadow to the edges of the leaves to lift them slightly from the blocks, thus re-enforcing the levels of depth between leaves, blocks and tree. That's the end of this series of blog posts. I hope you enjoyed seeing the process behind creating this book cover design. Later on this year the book will be printed and made available to purchase online. Just as soon as that happens, I will post about the finished book and where to get it!

Vintage Beatrix Potter 3D Pop-Up books Tale of Tom Kitten Peter Rabbit Benjamin Bunny Jemima PuddleDuck original beautiful illustrations new FREE Media Mail SHIPPING The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck A Pop-Up Book The Tale of Tom Kitten A Pop-Up Book The Tale of Peter Rabbit A Pop-Up Book The Tale of Benjamin Bunny A Pop-Up Book Size: About 8 by 8 by 1/2 inch Copyright F Warne Published by Paradise Press, Inc., 1987 Condition: All books are in as new, excellent condition. There is no evidence of previous use. Your purchase will contain cardboard to keep it safe during shipping. Each of these lovely books is over 30 years old, but you won't know they're not new. These are rare, well-done, very desirable publications, sure to delight everyone in your family. The front cover contains an original Beatrix Potter illustration, surrounded by a beautiful border of flowers and berries. Beneath that is a flower from the story: pansies for Tom Kitten (from Tabitha Twitchit's Cottage garden); pink Delphiniums for Jemima Puddle-Duck (from the flowers at the farm); pink nasturtiums on the cover of the Benjamin Bunny book (from Mr. McGregor's garden); and orange geraniums from Mr. McGregor's garden for Peter Rabbit. Thoughtfully, the book designer also placed a picture of the main character on the spine of each book so when stacked on the shelf, a child can easily find the book he or she wants. These are not the same books as those written by Beatrix Potter and published in the early 20th century. Since these are pop-up books, each pop-up "spread" takes up two pages. So, each book is made up of 3 "spreads" and is 6 pages long. This means the stories are abridged, but it's carefully done. All the important elements are still here, but some details are left out. Your child will have no trouble following the story, and some of the "darker" elements of Potter's stories are left out. For example, today's children might be upset that the puppies eat Jemima's eggs, leaving her heartbroken. That part is "glossed over" in this edition. Perceived variations in color are due to lighting. Free pick up available in the Tulsa area. Contact me before checkout so you don't pay shipping.

This means all mail must now go to Oklahoma City to be sorted. For those of us near Tulsa, it will mean at least a day will be added to delivery time. Also, you need to understand how the shipping profile attached to my listings works. Since all my listings ship without additional charge to the purchaser, I have estimated each shipping cost to every location in the continental United States. Sometimes buyers are confused by how Etsy posts all these classes and charges at checkout; some have though that it is up to them to choose the shipping class; I wish to state that I make that decision based on cost, which is always rising. If, however, you are interested in purchasing an item that you want to arrive by a certain date, please contact me immediately after purchase via messaging. I may be able to accommodate your request but if not, I can arrange for you to pay to upgrade to a faster delivery method.
