Reflex Math

Dear Parents/Guardians:

A letter has been sent home regarding the use of the Reflex Math Program.   I encourage you to please read over the letter and access the free Reflex Parent Reporting Account if you have internet.  This is a program which our students are using in the school to help with multiplication and division facts.  It is also a program which students are able to use at home.  If you have any questions please give me a call at the school.

Thanks

M. Hickey

How To Make Air Hardening Clay

How to Make Air Hardening Clay Materials Needed for Clay:

Optional/other:

• 2 cups flour

• vegetable oil

• 1 cup salt

• cookie cutter

• large bowl

• coffee mug

• 1 cup hot tap water

• ball point pen

• food coloring

• large spoon

• wax paper

• airtight container

• rolling pin

Instructions

1. Pour the flour and salt into a large bowl. Stir them together with your hands or a spoon.

2. Place a drop or two of your favorite food coloring shade into the cup of hot water. Stir gently with a

spoon.

3. Pour the hot water into the flour and salt mixture a little at a time, stirring the ingredients with a large

spoon or your hands until it reaches a dough-like consistency throughout and the color has blended into

the dough.

Optional: Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil for a smoother dough.

Add another drop or two of food coloring to make the dough colour more prominent.

• toothpick

4. Place a sheet of wax paper on the table. Grab a hunk of dough and flatten it onto the wax paper. Roll it with a rolling pin to create flat shapes.

5. Use a cookie cutter or inverted containers such as a coffee mug or plastic food storage container to cut specific shapes. Use a toothpick to poke a hole near the top of each cutout shape. A string will be threaded through this hole later.

To Make a Medallion

6. You can make a medallion from a round, square or rectangular shape. Simply use a ballpoint pen to draw your design into the dough. You may wish to use one or more of the ancient hieroglyphics found on black line master 8 to create a medallion.

7. Let the clay dry on the wax paper and then pant with tempera or acrylic paint if desired. Note, it may take several days to dry depending on the thickness of your creations.

8. Any extra clay mixture can be kept in an airtight container.

To Make Ornaments

You can also use this clay to make special ornaments for gifts or home décor. You can create your shapes using cookie cutters, inverted cups or inverted plastic containers. If desired, use a ballpoint pen to draw a design in each shape. Let dry and then paint if desired.
