Momducator
Welcome to our play based homeschool life. We are a smorgasbord of styles of learning and playing with bits of Montessori, Reggio, STEAM, and Charlotte Mason as it fits our learning needs best. This page shows some of what we do in our days in hopes to encourage other families and classrooms to include more play based learning in to their learning environments with some simple activities you can create on your own. Have fun, Go play! ~jess

Art Loop: Process Art: Spooky Eyes
We drew circles onto watercolor paper. They would then add watercolors onto watercolors and let it bleed ending with black in the center to create a pupil. They then cut white pieces of paper to add to the pupil to make it look like it had the light glare.
See the action shots in my stories and I’ll link up our favorite liquid water colors that turn out so vibrant.

Contraction Hunt
Write contractions onto a white sheet of paper. Place a glass dish on top of the paper. Then fill dish partially with water and black coloring. I gave her cards with two words that she then had to use a clear glass to find the contraction those words make.
See it in action in my stories and two other fun ways we worked with contractions this week.

Spooky Paper Chain Garland
This took up our whole afternoon! We loved this paper hand craft.
To make ours we cut our construction paper into 3 inch strips. Folded into 8ths and traced onto both folds. Very important the tracer hits both sides of the folds otherwise they won’t stay chained together. After each piece was cut out (don’t cut the fold!!!!) we taped them together to make a long garland. I loved how theirs came out.
PS: they made their own tracers.
❗️This is a great way to learn about bilateral symmetry (sneaky math). Strengthens hand muscles cutting through all those layers. And has the wow element when they see their work stretched!
