Classroom Scratch off Lottery Tickets

So I was stalking Pinterest recently and found these classroom scratch off tickets.

I decided I wanted to see if I could try my hand at them myself. I am SUPER happy with the results and decided to do my own little tutorial!

The Cast of Characters (supplies you need):

For the actual scratch off part you will need:

acrylic paint

dish soap
small containers for mixing
paint brushes

I used Martha Stewart paints

You need to use two parts acrylic to one part dish soap. I did not measure and just eye-balled it and it turned out fine!

I created a lottery ticket with prizes my kids would want and printed and laminated it (So I can use them over and over). ***Tip: When I make my next set I will vary the order the prizes go in so kids are not able to memorize the order.

I used Frog Tape around the edges I wanted to paint, but for the next three cards I just painted by hand...it was soon much faster and easier!

Here is how they turned out!!!

Staples Engineering Prints

Last summer I decided that I wanted to re-do my bedroom. I painted the room purple, which i've always wanted to do, but the big thing I wanted was prints for my walls. I did a lot of research and man were prints expensive in the sizes that I wanted! Finally, I learned about Staples Engineering Prints They are super cheap, and actually print really nicely (even though the website claims they are not intended for photos). Take a look at how mine turned out (Don't mind the mess, this was still in the putting back together phase). How I did it: After my prints came in the mail, I went to Lowes and found This . All I did was trace the print on the insulation board, cut it with a regular box cutter, and paint the edges of it with a Paint Sample that accented my walls. The last step was gluing the print to the insulation board. I liked this spray the best because I could reposition the print in case I didn't line it up just so. After I got ...

Lego Rewards for VIPKid or GoGoKid

So I was looking at the facebook groups today and I saw a lady who's daughter made this for the GogoKid lesson "Apple and Banana" and I thought it was just great! : Every slide (or every time a student does a good job) you could add a few more pieces to creation and have them guess what it is going to be! I started looking up other simple creations that my students always talk about and compiled a short list below! (Each picture is clickable for instructions on how to make them) I am sure that if you have children you already have these Legos rolling around in your house somewhere causing havoc on your feet. However, if you are like me and don't have kids yet, you might need a little bit of a starter kit! Click the images below to see them on Amazon.
