I am passionate about learning that is tailored to children's interests and gives lots of opportunity for children to be creative and critical thinkers. I love activities that involve problem-solving and teamwork. I think it's important that learning materials cater to a variety of learning styles and get kids moving, using their hands to make things, and appeal to them visually. I also try to make my teaching have real-world applications whenever possible.

This summer lemonade craft is a fun, hands-on way for children to show kindness and appreciation for each other, which is perfect for summer, as an end-of-year activity or back to school activity. Either way, your students will be buzzing with good feelings when they receive ice cube compliments from their peers!
Students make a 3D glass of lemonade with a slice of lemon and a straw. They then write either compliments for others or ideas for being kind on the ice cubes. The glasses go on a display for students to fill.
What’s included?
Template to make a glass of lemonade with a straw and slice of lemon
Templates for ice cube compliments
Three display phrases to choose from in 1-word per page, A4 size, or A3 size
U.K. and U.S versions
You will need:
Paper or light card
Glue sticks
Coloring pencils

Real paper straws could be fun to add but are optional as a drawn paper straw is included in the template.
I hope your students enjoy giving and receiving their ice cube compliments!
