Learning a tune on the melodeon in order to teach someone else the tune...
My day began snuggling with my husband and our dog, and then the sound of Sandhill Cranes landing in the lot next to our house! KERRROOOK, KERRROOOK, KERRROOOK! I decided to get out there before my shower, and I’m so glad I did. It was Zero and Dasani, Classic and Cherry’s offspring from almost a year ago to the day. They hatched on or around March 12th last year. They are full grown, and SO splendid. They look so much like their parents, but I could still tell it was them. There were a few flecks of gray still present in their red hats but not much, and their legs also gave them away. Their parents’ legs are slightly thicker and their knees are bigger.
Classic and Cherry weaned them out of the family situation over time beginning in November. I watched it happen. It pulled my heart strings. They continued to teach them as they began their mating dances, but of course that was also the reason it was time for them to separate. My assumption is that I will see Classic and Cherry emerge from the woods on the property where I work with this year's baby or babies by next week or weekend. They brought Sprite out almost a year to the day before they brought Zero and Dasani out to start learning to forage. You can see a lot of shots of this family in my Sandhill Crane set. They are my favorite bird, and my favorite family of Sandhill Cranes, so I could go on and on. Oops, I guess I already did!
The nicitating membrane also called a third eyelid blinks horizontally. I think it comes out mostly when they are foraging. I imagine it protects their eye from the occasional poke from a blade of grass or other flora as they peck into the loose Florida soil for bugs. I thought this was a really cool capture of this membrane. Cats and rabbits also have this “third eyelid” Thanks for viewing!

We created a first prototype of a City of the Future for our Maker Art course with lower school and middle school students.
In this class, students will create a City of the Future together, using arts and electronics to make a model of what our world could be like in 100 years. They will build a futuristic home with a cardboard ‘wonderbox’ such as this one, featuring animated characters like this ‘robot maid’ in the shape of a lightbulb -- which starts vibrating to ‘vacuum’ the floor when you press a button.
If you live in the Bay Area and have (or know) a child between 10 and 14, you might be interested in our cool after-school activity for middle school students, which I will be teaching this spring with Geo Monley in his fabulous workshop at Tam High.
This fun and educational course starts March 30 at Tam High School in Mill Valley. We will meet every Wednesday at 3:30pm, for 8 weeks. In the process, students will develop a range of skills, from science and engineering to creative expression. And they will create their own interactive art with simple electronics, in a playful way that makes learning more fun.
Fabrice and Jean collaborated to make this first prototype in about 45 minutes, as a proof of concept. The children will have 8 weekly sessions to bring their boxes to life with lights, sounds and motion.

Would never have thought that learning to clap would be either that difficult, or that rewarding, guess I know better now! With a vintage preset from www.ononesoftware.com/products/lightroom-presets/

This is how the children practiced their writing skills. They just smoothed out a section of dirt and drew letters in the dirt. Well, it's certainly cheaper than buying paper and pencils

Minister Bruce Ralston joined a moderator and three featured panelists for a conversation about the future of work, co-sponsored by Amazon and Canada Learning Code.
Amazon and Canada Learning announced a new partnership to support Canada Learning Code’s K-12 education programs. Amazon’s $525,000, three-year investment in Canada Learning Code will support CLC’s Code Mobiles, which brings computer science lessons to students in rural areas; Canada Learning Code Week which delivers coding lessons to over 25,000 youth learners across the county; and the building of a Canada K-12 Computer Science Framework to develop a set of core computer science principles that drive computer science education.
