My favorite ever art project with my third graders was their self-portraits. They drew themselves with pencil, traced the lines with sharpie, then used water-colors to paint the portraits. They turned out great. The best was the one in the top left corner. Someone asked Calyn while he was painting why he was painting a potato instead of himself. I had to turn around so they wouldn't see me laughing.
I decided that for All About Me week we should try the same thing. I had Connor try it a couple of weeks ago to see if it would even work with 3 and 4 year olds. I think this works for any age and drawing ability. I love seeing the evolution of how children draw people. It'll be fun to have the children do a self-portrait of themselves at the end of the school year and see how much they've developed in how they see and represent people. For this project I also had the children paint sticks in their favorite color to frame their portraits. And I interviewed each child about their favorites: color, animal, number, treat, food, and toy. I taped their answers to the back. It's a great "picture" of what they were like in September 2007.

I'm the sort of guy who passions to taste unprecedented things. Presently I'm manufacturing my private pv panels. I am doing it all alone without the aid of my men. I'm using the net as the only path to acheive this. I came across a really awesome site that explains how to build solar panels and so on. The web site explains all the steps involved in solar panel construction.
I'm not really sure about how correct the information given there iz. If some guys over here who had experience with these works can have a see and give your feedback in the page it would be awesome and I'd extremely appreciate it, because I extremely lav solar panel construction.
