It's NEW, so it has to be THE BEST...Right?

Extracting the unexpected and putting it into one class. This is something that the Arts are about. Something, you would normally do in a regular gym, is nothing like we the Arts. In the Arts, we have done yoga, cooking, sewing, knitting, and salsa. With my own knowledge, I know I grown in many fundamentals. Learning, to concentrate and go at a steady pace is something that is required in this class. It also must require patients. For example, look at the Hapkido. The parts were we take down people, is easy. But, learning how to fall is difficult in a way. So, trying your best is the KEY!!!If you agree, then write and comment MY BLOG!!!

How to make a Piñata!!!

http://www.bry-backmanor.org/holidayfun/pinata.htmlThis website explains how to make a Piñata!!!This is would be a great experience. This would also, give the family something to do. A family fun activity is what everyone wants!! This is a great way to spend time with each other. The directions are easy to understand. The material is also easy to read and understand. It also has a WARNING that it is a MESSY project!!! But don’t worry; the fun will overcome the mess.

Sincerely,

Cooking Lessons

The Future of Children---After School
This is a website focusing on the future of children. Encourages children to stay in school. The website has statistics on grants, done by communities. This also has questions that they have thought about and considered. Among these questions, “What is the purpose of after school programs?” This is a good question to think about, because some after school activities can take you to places. They ca also get you to meet high power people, it can put you at the right place at the time. So, you can gain opportunities that can help you in the future.

Fun Family---Learning how tomake an Apron
This is to help families to make fun aprons. This lists what you will need to make the apron. Also, this website leads to going to other fun crafts. Adults get to work with children. The children would enjoy dipping their hands in some paint. As a star rating it is listed as a 5 star apron. Not only to mention, that you can subscribe to a magazine and learn even more fun activities.

http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/cooking/
Food Network---Cooking
This website has very famous cooks on it. This is a trusted site, because it is also known as a television show. This website does advertise, but it is on cooking books. I can relate the Arts with this because we have done cooking in the past. To continue, the food network has recipes that you can look up. With the food network, you can look up ways to eat healthy. Or, you could look at easy ways to prepare certain food dishes.

About.com---Cooking
“About.com” is in a way different when it comes to cooking. It has quizzes, and from what I saw, none of the other sites didn’t have quizzes. This can help by ensuring that you remember how to do specific details. This website also has quick recipes. This can come in handy if you have to make something easy.

Introducing MY B-E-A-UTIFUL blog!!!!!

My blog is about some of the lessons we do in the Arts. This I find would be interesting, because we do a lot of activities. With this, we do dancing, cooking, yoga, sewing, knitting, and many other educational plans. As, I start to up date this feel free to send comments and or give me ideas!!!!

Sincerely,

Cooking in the ARTS!!!

Cooking was a blast!!!! With this, we experienced how to make numerous great meals! We also, learned the different tastes of many different COOKIES!!!! Knowing this, we can now take these newly acquired skills, and make a nice Saturday morning breakfast, lunch, or dinner. If a student were to do this, their parent would know that they have a chance at being a chef, and or at least they are taking something from this wonderful program. To know what we cooked, we learned how to make mini burgers, crapes, square pancakes, salsa, French toast, cookies, omelets, tossed salad, and garlic bread!!
Yummy!!!!
