From the Inbox: So. Cal Homeschool Fair ~ Memorial Day (Ontario)

2009-04-07T15:02:00.000-07:00

The 20th Annual Southern California Homeschool Fair is coming to Ontario this Memorial Day 2009.

Location: Ontario Christian High School
931 W. Philadelphia Ave in Ontario, California.
Date: Monday, Memorial Day
Fair Hours: 9:00AM - 4:00PM
Fair Tickets: $2.50/person up to $12/family* in Advance.
Gate prices are $4/person-$20/family*.
Children 3 & under are free.
[* family is defined as mom and dad and kids; it does not include extended members]

Remember to save projects your child has completed since June 1, 2008. You can enter them into the fair. Save those poems, craft projects, drawings, paintings, history and science reports, etc. See detailed listing of project categories below or at http://www.homeschoolfair.com/2009fair/divisions.html

There's still plenty of time to prepare projects for entry. Deadline for non-perishable entries is April 30.

We, personally, have so many fond memories of the Homeschool Fair. It is such a great way to showcase your child's work and invite friends and family members to share in the festivities. There are so many booths with great information about resources for homeschooling. The Olympic events were always one of our favorite activities. The planning committee is planning some wonderful ways to share memories from past fairs in celebration of the Fair's 20th Anniversary.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
Marilyn Short
Project Entry Coordinator

2008-11-19T15:12:00.000-08:00

As we inaugurate the new president, we invite children of America to participate in National Handwriting Day (NHD). This is an opportunity for children to submit handwritten letters of advice and have their voices be heard.
Join thousands of children across the country and help us make history! All handwritten letters will be hand-delivered to the White House on January 23.
Why handwritten letters? Handwriting is more than a style—it’s a thought process. It’s the primary way elementary students communicate. Handwriting promotes an organized approach to communication, maximizes thinking time, and boosts creativity. Use NHD as an opportunity for your students to show their pride in their written work by writing to the new leader of our country!

The half-hour show, called the "Lytle Creek Story" features puppets and a storyline created by internationally acclaimed puppeteer and Cal State Professor Johanna Smith.

more about the event:

The Lytle Creek Story Puppet Show
Science Curriculum Connections

The Lytle Creek Story puppet show is compatible with the State of California science curriculum standards for grades 3rd through 5th. Included in the show are concepts that relate to Life and Earth Science topics. The WRI includes the following Hand-outs included for teachers and parents to use after the performance.

These include:

· A finger puppet sheet that can be colored included some animals that are special to Lytle Creek region. The Speckled Dace fish and the Slender Salamander who are all depicted in the play.

· The water cycle hand-out offers teachers of older students to supplement student's understanding of the water cycle topic and how watershed health is vital to keeping our water supply healthy.

3rd Grade

The students in the third grade will be able to take away science related concepts they see in the puppet show and relate it to what they have and will be taught in the classroom.

For example, 3rd grade students may recognize the idea that living things cause changes in the environment in which they live; some of these changes are detrimental to the organism or other organisms, and some are beneficial.

4th Grade

The students in the fourth grade will be able to relate concepts related to life and earth science that they learned in the third grade and concepts that will and have been taught in the fourth.

For example, a 4th grade student may also recognize the idea of living organisms' dependency on one another and on their environment for survival.

5th Grade

The fifth grade students will be able to relate the concepts that they learned in the third and fourth grade as well as the science concepts from the fifth grade in the puppet show.

For example, a 5th grade student will recognize the concept that water on Earth moves between the oceans and land through the processes of evaporation and condensation.

The Water Resources Institute is interested in any feedback and other topics that are not reflected in this summary. We appreciate any opportunity to evolve discussions with teachers that would be interested in potentially working on a more comprehensive program for Fall 2009.

=================================

Dear Teacher and/or Principal,

The Lytle Creek watershed supplies drinking water to our local cities, including Fontana, Rialto, San Bernardino, Colton, as well as the neighborhoods of Muscoy and Bloomington. The Water Resources Institute and Theater Arts Department of California State University, San Bernardino have put together puppet show to demonstrate the importance of the watershed to our daily lives, as part of larger "Lytle is Vital" Outreach program we are spearheading. We would love to perform the 30-minute puppet show at your school for free.

The puppet show is compatible with the State of California science curriculum standards for grades 3rd through 5th. Included in the show are concepts that relate to Life and Earth Sciences. For example, 3rd grade students may recognize the idea that living things cause changes in the environment in which they live; some of these changes are detrimental to the organism or other organisms, and some are beneficial. A 4th grade student may also recognize the idea of living organisms' dependency on one another and on their environment for survival. And lastly, a 5th grade student will recognize the concept that water on Earth moves between the oceans and land through the processes of evaporation and condensation. There are many other concepts demonstrated during the show and above are just a few examples; all students will have a better understanding of their own watershed and how these concepts tie into the importance of taking care of the watershed.

We have several dates available for the show to be performed at your school. You may contact Lisa Pierce at (909) 537-3685 to schedule a show and get more information about our efforts within the watershed. Dates are filling fast, so please let us know as soon as possible if your school is interested in having the CSUSB 2008 Puppetry Class perform the puppet show.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
