Craft Project ©2005Abcteach.Com Craft Project Grade Range: 3rd grade and up Difficulty Rating: Medium Time: approximately 20 minutes for project Categories: Recycle, Gift Recipe Box #1 What you will need: 1/2 gallon milk carton; washed and dry Scissors Adhesive: double-stick tape or glue Contact paper in desired design Ruler Pencil or pen 4x6" index card 1. Open the top end of the milk carton. 2. Refer to the photograph before cutting. You will completely cut off one side of the milk carton. If the milk carton has a special pour spout, be sure to cut that side off. 3. Take the index card and stand it up inside the milk carton for sizing. You will want the recipe card box to be slightly larger than the index card so the cards can be moved easily inside the box. 4. Make a mark with the pencil or pen on the inside of the milk carton. Measure and mark on the other sides. Cut down along the corners to the marks. 5. Use the ruler and mark across to create fold lines. Press firmly with pen or pencil when marking, as this will help make folding easier. 6. Fold ends in. Secure with either double-stick tape (ideal) or with glue. 7. If using glue, you will need to stand the milk carton up on its end, place a heavy object inside and leave overnight to dry. If using double-stick tape, proceed to the next step. 8. Cut contact paper to 13" in length. 9. Remove backing from contact paper and place it sticky side up. 10. Place milk carton on contact paper, centered in the middle. 11. Pull the contact paper up on the ends of the milk carton. Cut contact paper from edge to the corner as shown in photograph. 12. Fold the contact paper to the front and back as shown in photograph. Cut the contact paper from the edge to the corner on the top of the contact paper to make it easier to fold down. Fold down edges of contact paper. You may trim the paper to adjust the length of the fold on the top of the milk carton. 13. Pull the front piece of contact paper up. Fold over and press. Repeat for the back piece. 14. Fill with recipe cards. Idea: Decorate blank index cards to give with your recipe box. Notes: This can easily be adapted to 3x5" index cards by cutting the sides and ends of the milk carton shorter. One nice feature of the contact paper adhesive is that it is repositionable if it does not smooth out the first time. Make sure the scissors the children are going to use will be able to cut the contact paper easily. You may add a bow or something decorative to the box if desired. Keep in mind though that this will be used in a kitchen and will need to be washable. You could use stickers to add decoration or even alphabet stickers to personalize. ©2005abcteach.com Craft Project ©2005abcteach.com .

    PROJECT SMART MAKING MATHEMATICS MEANINGFUL TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY Materials List 2020 https://www.projectsmart.net This page intentionally left blank. Project SMART: Making Mathematics Meaningful List of Materials by Units OVER VIEW Materials Not Listed The Project SMART List of Materials does not include the following basic items, since these should be provided for each student by the program: • Student journal (composition book or spiral) • Pencils • Markers In addition, all teachers should have access to the following for use throughout most of the lessons (along with any general teaching supplies): • Chart paper or poster board • Markers • Dry erase board and markers, or interactive white board • Sticky notes Materials Listed This page intentionally left blank. There are six instructional components that require materials within each Project SMART unit: • Math Lessons • STEM Connection • Fun with Fractions • Spiral Review • Family Game • Literature Lessons This materials list does include all items which may need to be purchased for all six of these components. Copies/reproducible handouts and cardstock items, which will need to be made by the program, are not listed. Center-based programs typically teach all six components if offering at least a six-hour day. Programs with shorter days may choose to omit the Literature Lessons, Fun with Fractions, or STEM lesson, since those concepts are not explicitly assessed by the program. Home-based programs teach the Math Lessons; all other components are optional. NOTE: Materials listed for the Family Game component indicate the quantity needed for the teacher to teach the game to the students. In order to meet the program objective for parental engagement, additional materials must be provided to each student for home use, with both Center-based and Home-based programs.

  • Dot Tower Challenge
    Dot Tower Challenge In this fun but challenging activity, kids become engineers, using critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity to plan, design, build and improve an index card tower. Fun Facts/Information: Ÿ Towers technically are defined as structures that usually are taller than they are wide. Ÿ Towers generally are distinguished from masts by their lack of guy-wires (a tensioned cable designed to add stability to a free-standing structure), and commonly are built to take advantage of their height. Ÿ Towers also can stand alone on the ground or as part of a larger structure or device, such as a fortified building or an integral part of a bridge. Ÿ Having existed since primitive times, towers have served as structures that support bridges, and even prisons (think of the classic fairy tale, Rapunzel). Ÿ The Tokyo Skytree, completed in 2012, is the tallest tower in the world at 634 meters (2,080 feet). It is the world's second tallest structure after Burji Khalifa, a 2,716.5-foot skyscraper located in the United Arab Emirates. Ÿ The Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas, Nevada is the 19th tallest observation tower in the world, standing 350.2 meters (1,149 feet) tall, and was constructed in 1996. Objective: Ÿ Challenge children to be engineers and build the tallest dot tower out of index cards and sticker dots. Ÿ Reinforce that engineers are problem solvers who invent, design, analyze, build and test machines, computer systems, structures, gadgets and materials to fulfill functional objects and requirements. This all is done while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety and cost.

    SEND POSTCARDS TO SPACE “Hi, I’m Hossain Ahmad. I’m an intern working for Blue Origin on the New Glenn rocket, which will help build the road to space by carrying people and payloads to Earth orbit and beyond. As societies are created, it’s important to define a set of values and principles for its inhabitants to reference every day to guide their work and stay true to their society’s mission.” As we think about expanding human endeavors in space, we have an exciting opportunity to think about the common set of values to guide and govern large societies as people collaborate together in space—and with each other. WHAT PRINCIPLES WOULD YOU INCLUDE IN A SPACE CONSTITUTION? YOUR MISSION: Create a constitution or define a set of values to govern a settlement in space. Once you’ve developed your idea, cut out the postcard below and draw or write your idea for a space constitution on the blank side. Put your address and a stamp on the front, place it in an envelope and mail it to: Club for the Future / PO Box 5759 / Kent, WA / 98064. Blue Origin will send it to space and back on its New Shepard rocket. The postcard will then get stamped ‘Flown to Space’ and mailed back to you for a special space-flown keepsake. On the blank side, draw or write your idea for a new constitution to govern a society in space. On this side, write a message, your address, and add a stamp.
