A student found this drawing mixed in with her sketches today.

Classic Sesame Street: Sand Sculptures

Sesame Street - Biff Helps Salvador Dada

Sesame Street: What a Piece of Paper!

Sesame Street - Sing Your Synonyms

Sesame Street - Fat Blue orders from Speedy Pizza

Time filler after preschool pizza lesson.

I am a pizza - Charlotte diamond - 10 Carrot Diamond

I might use this as a lesson sparker for a preschool sub lesson. The little ones can watch this....talk about what kinds of things they would want to put on a pizza and then create a paper pizza. If there is time left over, I would have the sub show some other pizza videos. This isn't all I would do if I were teaching the lesson, but that might be as much as a sub would want to do.
