With each click of a correct answer, a portion of a picture is drawn right before their eyes. Once the entire picture is completed, students have the opportunity to color in the picture and place it back on the mural wall. Piggy’s Birthday Present is engaging—not just because the high quality graphics draw students into a magical world...and not just because they become instant artists. Piggy’s Birthday Present is challenging—not just because there are over 50 math and language arts activities...and not just because there are so many treasures to find. Piggy’s Birthday Present is successful because its engaging dot-to-dot format, whimsical environment, and teacher-created activities make building number and language skills fun! Sequenced progression of difficulty Math and language arts materials are presented in a sequenced progression of questions that begins with the simplest of concepts, appropriate for kindergarten children, and gradually becomes more difficult, ending with questions appropriate for second grade. Students first complete the dot to dot, then they get to paint in the picture. When it’s finished, the painting becomes part of a larger mural. Piggy’s Birthday Present keeps students engaged by taking advantage of one of the most important principles in educational psychology—the principle of distributed practice. This learning principle is harnessed systematically in the dot-to-dot activity: children first connect 10 to 20 dots within a picture by answering simple content questions, and then they are given a self regulated break while coloring in a picture. This systematic alternating between content work and art work provides a learn and play , learn and play rhythm that facilitates learning. The best part about Piggy’s Birthday Present is that students set their own pace. If students are experiencing success, they can go straight through all of the exercises and skip the coloring. Or, if studnets need a little more time, they can pause to color in the pictures or even do the same dot-to-dot over again. The opportunity for students to set their own pace increases learning potential. Piggy’s Birthday Present is divided into two realms—one focuses on numbers and number sense, and the other on letters and sounds of the English language. Once children enter the upstairs playroom, they can go down the 1,2,3 slide to play in the math section, or down the A,B,C slide to play in the language arts section. In the upstairs bedroom, student choose between the A,B,C slide, or the 1,2,3 slide. Language arts If children go down the ABC slide, they will find the ABC dot-to-dots. These are language arts activities presented in a series of five large murals, each containing 5-10 dot-to-dot pictures. Within each dot-to-dot picture, children connect dots in response to questions that test their language arts skills over a broad range of concepts including letter recognition and alphabetic sequence. Students then progress through concepts such as letter/sound association, beginning and ending sounds, sight recognition of simple words, spelling, abbreviations, and contractions.

These are set up he same as the ABC side, just using different murals and math content. Math concepts include numeral recognition, number sequence, comparisons of numbers, simple addition, subtraction, and finding the missing addend. Click here to view a chart showing the cognitive framework of mathematical skills .In addition, the numbers in the math dot-to-dot can be heard in several languages — Spanish, French, Chinese (Mandarin), Italian, Japanese, and Indonesian! The first time students slide down the 123 slide they will see this mural. Piggy takes a trip to a farm and meets many new friends: a frog, a cow, a duck, a horse, and even another pig. The easy level teaches students number recognition from 1-10. The medium and hard levels teach students number sequence, 10-20 and 60-100, respectively. Click here to see a skills matrix for the Math Farm Mural. In all, there are more than 2,000 questions dealing with math and language arts that were taken from lesson plans of experienced teachers. When children play with Piggy’s Birthday Present , you can be sure they are practicing skills and concepts that complement your curriculum. Skills summary The Skills Summary feature gives teachers the content description for each mural at the easy, medium, or hard level. Students can work individually or in groups, and student work is always saved and recorded in the Skills Summary after every session.

Birthday Present Birthday Present At A Glance Author Gabrielle When A year ago Artist Scott Studio Milano body Piercing Location Milwaukie Well, there I was, a 13 year old wanting a navel piercing. Typical, right? So one day I looked it up, just out of boredom. And I soon found out more about them, standard gauges, jewlery website, all on piercing website. I suddenly became fascinated with piercing (not on myself...just in general) and learned alot. So, I decided that I was going to go for a navel piercing for a present to myself to starting high school/finishing middle school. My mother insisted that I get my nose pierced and I said no. I know, isnt it a little strange...it's usually the other way around. Anyway I didn't ask my dad because I knew that he'd say no because he doesnt even understand why people put holes in their bodies when he spent his entire life trying to keep them out. So I ask my mother and she says "Yeah okay whatever I dont care, its your body, do what you want." So school is about to start and she suddenly has to look into it and is indescisive. Finally she says yes and I decide to lose a little weight so that my stomach will be more attractive and then go for it. Yeah well that fell through anyway...but whatever. I postponed the piercing to my birthday (September 28th) and picked a few piercing places and called them up asking about the procedure. Some places you had to be 15 so I couldn't go there. I really wanted to go to a place called the Catalyst in downtown Vancouver, Washington but the piercer was out of town when I wanted to get it done. I settled on Milano Body Piercing and told my mother. She again was not sure and had to research it and all of that crap, which I had already done. So she finally agreed. She couldn't take me on the 28th because my stepdad had the car, so we did it the 29th afterschool. She picked me up from school and we drove to my dad's house and I dropped off some stuff. She pretended like she forgot about her and then rolled her eyes but drove me to Milano none the less. I wasnt really nervous and wanted the piercing, and was ready for any amount of pain at all. We find the place with directions from MapQuest and walk in. The place is empty and there is a girl in her twenties behind a glass counter. I say that I'd like a navel piercing and we sign forms and I pick out a stanless steel banana bell with 2 crystal gems. Being half black half white I liked the look it had on my caramel skin and picked it way before hand. The guy came out and nodded and slapped the girl at the register's butt which was a little...strange but I ignored it. Anyway the guy took me into a room like a little dentist and had me sit down. He market it and layed me back and I objected and stood up to make sure it was straight. He then lifted it up right way, and put on the clamp. I was a little creeped out about how fast he did and asked if I was nervous. I said no and looked at the ceiling. The clamp did not hurt. He put on gloves sterilized the area an (well actually he did this before) and then pierced me. The pain felt like a pinch and didnt hurt! I thought "That's it...?" Then I felt a tug and another tug and then looked down and my jewlery was in place. He then sprayed it with a product called H20cean and I was good to go. It took about a min. and a half, very fast! I went out and payed and was very pleased. I also bought the same sea salt spray and payed and was on my way. I had always had trouble with my ears. I was extremely worried that the piercing would keloid or migrate out if I lost some weight (I was just curvy). I got home and cleaned the piercing with anti-bacterial hand soap and sprayed it. It stung a little but after a while it was fine. Months went by and it was still healing. Around december I noticed that the bottom was getting darker and looked like a keloid was forming. I flipped out. I had also run out of H2Ocean so was using regular sea salt soaks and the shot glass cut around my bellybutton so I had a half moon scar next to it. I bought more H20cean and cleaned it. The bump at the bottom went away but then came back. I got irritated again and then started to religiously clean it even though it looked 80% healed, twice a day, sea salt sprays 5 times a day as recommended on the spray can. Low and behold the keloid completely dissapeared and now my navel is pretty much healed. Around my birthday it will be healed, which means it took it around 1 year. Its strange because I usually heal really quickly except with piercings. Anyway, H20cean was a God sent and my navel is good to go! What a great birthday present.
