Happy New Year’s 2019!

December 29, 2018 admin

Hello, I usually jump into the New Year with many goals for the upcoming year. What about this year you ask? I don't have anything.......... I am just going to try hard to move forward in life. Well, what does that mean? Yeah, I know, it's pretty vague. I think being stagnant is the worst thing you can do with your life. (I don't want to be in the same place 10 years from now) These are my intentions: I am going to move forward with my Adventures of Scuba Jack business. I am going to move forward with my kids and help them take their next steps in their lives. (for my sanity and theirs) I am going to move forward with my elderly parents and in-law's who both need my daily presence and love. I am going to move forward in helping my husband's business move to the next level. If the clutter in my life doesn't fit... Read More...

The largest ocean on Earth is the Pacific Ocean, it covers around 30% of the Earth’s surface. The Pacific Ocean’s name has an original meaning of ‘peaceful sea’. The Pacific Ocean is surrounded by the Pacific Ring of Fire, a large number of active volcanoes. The second largest ocean on Earth is the Atlantic Ocean, it covers over 21% of the Earth’s surface.

Halloween Counting Activity Worksheet

October 28, 2018 admin

Halloween Counting Activity Worksheet Teaching a child to count may seem like a relatively easy task. However, it might also be frustrating and complex at times. Counting is the first math concept taught in school. Halloween Counting Practice 100 https://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Halloween-Counting-Practice-100.pdf The ability to count and work with numbers is a basic math skill for children when beginning school. By working with your child on some fun and engaging activities, you can help him/her gain important skills in this area. Counting to 20 Counting from 1 to 20 requires rote memorization. If your child is not yet able to count from 1 to 20, you can help him gain this ability simply by counting with him at every opportunity. To engage your child, count aloud as you or your child completes certain activities. For example, see who can put away more toys in 10 or 20 seconds, counting aloud together as you clean. Or, count how many steps it takes... Read More...

STEM: Science Drawing of Warty Gourds and Smooth Apples.

October 27, 2018 admin

Science Drawing: Warty Gourds and Smooth Apples Autumn brings all sorts of fun new shapes and textures for children to explore. Encourage your little scientists to make careful observations with some orange pumpkins, warty gourds, shiny apples and other wonders this fall. In this activity you will give kids the chance to observe, describe and draw like a scientist. Never underestimate the potential and focus of an early childhood learner! If framed correctly, they will very carefully examine an object and draw its details. Pair this with a descriptive word exercise and you will have sharpened these natural scientists’ STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) skills. Collect some items that you will be able to pass around for kids to touch, smell and look at. I love having them compare little decorative gourds in autumn because of the myriad of shapes and textures, but you could bring just about anything into the classroom or home to observe. Feathers, rocks,... Read More...

Halloween Writing Practice

October 25, 2018 admin

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays of the year. We party hard at my school.... we have pony rides, petting zoo, face painter and balloon twisters. We decorate cookies and pumpkins and partake in a ghoulish sing along. We Trick or Treat throughout the neighborhood gathering hand fulls of candy at each house along the way. The day is filled with laughter and an abundance of sugar induced energy. I created this fun activity to help my Kindergarten students with Pre-Reading. It is a quiet activity that helps strengthen fine motor skills and demonstrates sentence structure. They have fun while learning basic literacy concepts such as: print is spoken words that are written down, print carries meaning, and we read from left to right, from the top to the bottom of a page, and from the front to the back of a book.

Manta Ray Activities For Pre-School

September 25, 2018 admin

Manta ray is marine fish that belongs to the family of eagle rays. There are two species of manta ray: giant manta ray and reef manta ray. They can be found in the tropical and subtropical parts of Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. Manta rays are rarely kept in the captivity because of their large size. Number of manta rays in the ocean is declining due to pollution of the sea, by-catch (entrapment in the fishing nets by accident) and uncontrolled collecting from the wild (gill rakers of manta ray are used in traditional Asian medicine). Thanks to all these factors, manta rays are classified as vulnerable. Download the Manta Ray activities booklet now and have fun !

Octopus Activities for Kids

September 7, 2018 admin

Octopuses are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the world’s oceans but are especially abundant in warm, tropical waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid, are often considered “monsters of the deep,” though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters. Most octopuses stay along the ocean’s floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the water’s surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Download the Octopus activities booklet now and have fun !

Download the activities booklet now and have fun ! Whale Shark Activities for Kids The whale shark is a slow-moving, filter-feeding carpet shark and the largest known extant fish species. The largest confirmed individual had a length of 12.65 m (41.5 ft) and a weight of about 21.5 t (47,000 lb).The whale shark holds many records for size in the animal kingdom, most notably being by far the largest living non-mammalian vertebrate. The whale shark is found in open waters of the tropical oceans and is rarely found in water below 21 °C (70 °F).[2] Modeling suggests a lifespan of about 70 years, but measurements have proven difficult. Whale sharks have very large mouths and are filter feeders, which is a feeding mode that occurs in only two other sharks, the mega mouth shark and the basking shark. They feed almost exclusively on plankton and are not known to pose a threat to humans. The species was distinguished in April 1828 after the harpooning of a 4.6 m (15 ft) specimen in Table Bay, South Africa. Andrew Smith, a military doctor associated with British troops stationed...

The great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), also known as the great white, white shark or white pointer, is a species of large mackerel shark which can be found in the coastal surface waters of all the major oceans. The great white shark is notable for its size, with larger female individuals growing to 6.1 m (20 ft) in length and 1,905 kg (4,200 lb) in weight at maturity.[3][4][5] However most are smaller, males measuring 3.4 to 4.0 m (11 to 13 ft) and females 4.6 to 4.9 m (15 to 16 ft) on average.[5][6] According to a 2014 study the lifespan of great white sharks is estimated to be as long as 70 years or more, well above previous estimates,[7] making it one of the longest lived cartilaginous fish currently known.[8] According to the same study, male great white sharks take 26 years to reach sexual maturity, while the females take 33 years to be ready to produce offspring.[9] Great white sharks can swim at speeds of over...

Sea Turtle Activity Booklet

August 10, 2018 admin

Sea Turtle Booklet The majority of a sea turtle's body is protected by its shell. The turtle's shell is divided into two sections: the carapace (the dorsal portion) and the plastron (the ventral portion). The shell is made up of smaller plates called scutes. The leatherback is the only sea turtle that does not have a hard shell. Instead, it bears a mosaic of bony plates beneath its leathery skin. In general, sea turtles have a more fusiform body plan than their terrestrial or freshwater counterparts. The reduced volume of a fusiform (tapering at both ends) body means sea turtles can not retract their head, legs, and arms into their shells for protection like other turtles can. However this more stream-lined body plan reduces drag in the water and allows the turtle to swim more easily. The leatherback is the largest species of sea turtle. Measuring 2–3 meters (6–9 ft) in length, and 1-1.5 m (3–5 ft) in width, weighing up to 700 kilograms (1500 lb).... Read More...
What Lives In The Ocean? Colored Version and Black and White Download

July 23, 2018 admin

The Atlantic Ocean is comprised of saltwater and is quite warm when compared with other oceans, providing ideal conditions for a host of diverse animal species. As the Atlantic Ocean is the second-largest ocean in the world, covering approximately 20 percent of the Earth's surface, it is able to support a multitude of animals as their habitat. Many sea mammals, such as whales, dolphins and seals, migrate to and from the Atlantic Ocean each year. During the summer months, these species travel to colder waters to find rich feeding grounds and to build up their bodily stores of fat for the coming winter. They return from the colder Polar regions to the warmer waters of the Atlantic Ocean in the winter months in order to mate and rear their young. Here is an ocean book to do with your kids or in a classroom.

Sea Turtle Booklet for Kids

July 23, 2018 admin

Basic Facts About Sea Turtles Sea turtles are one of the Earth's most ancient creatures. The seven species that can be found today have been around for 110 million years, since the time of the dinosaurs. The sea turtle's shell, or "carapace" is streamlined for swimming through the water. Unlike other turtles, sea turtles cannot retract their legs and head into their shells. Their color varies between yellow, greenish and black depending on the species. Download Booklet Here! https://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Sea-Turtle-Booklet-1.pdf Diet What sea turtles eat depends on the subspecies, but some common items include jellyfish, seaweed, crabs, shrimp, sponges, snails, algae and mollusks. Population It is difficult to find population numbers for sea turtles because male and juvenile sea turtles do not return to shore once they hatch and reach the ocean, which makes it hard to keep track of them.

Spider Printable Crafts for Kids

Spider Printable Crafts for Kids Icky, I can't say I'm a huge fan of spiders. I think they are creepy with a capital C.

Recycle Relay, an Activity for Earth Day and Every Day! Earth Day Printable recycle_relay_printable https://adventuresofscubajack.com/printable-worksheets/ Kids at any age can learn to love and respect our planet.

In learning the simple act of recycling, students also can learn responsibility, respect, sorting, counting and even materials science! Recycling means different things in different places, depending on what waste removal services are available. As soon as children learn to sort, they can also learn to recycle. It is another home and school task that kids love to help with. Play Recycle Relay A fun way to learn more about the science of what things are made of, as well as a great lesson in conservation is to play “Recycle Relay”. “Recycle Relay” is a non-competitive recycling relay race.

Alphabet Tracing for Preschoolers

May 20, 2018 admin

Learning the alphabet is an essential part of early learning about literacy...Distinguishing between letters and learning their names is not all there is to 'learning the alphabet.'

Teaching children to write the letters of the alphabet is very important. This printable alphabet worksheet helps kids learn by tracing the letters of the alphabet. https://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/SF8.jpg Have Fun!

Sea Creature Graphing for Preschool Age Students

May 20, 2018 admin

Sea Creature Graphing for Preschool Age Students A while back, I talked about the four things that I wanted to have more of in my classroom in order to promote more math opportunities:Graphing Today (finally) I’m going to talk about graphing. One of the reasons that I like graphing so much is that it gives my class a real-life, relevant reason to use math concepts. Once we graph something, it only makes sense to count elements from the graph, as well as to compare and contrast them. Plus, it gives everyone a chance to participate – there is a piece of everyone on every graph, and their piece is important. Really, there are two main things that you have to consider when you make graphs. One is subject matter: What are you graphing? The second is format: How are you going to display your graph? Here is my fun graph for Preschoolers! https://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/spring-May-2018-7.jpg Ms. Beth http://adventuresofscubajack.com Read More...

Octopuses can actually taste their food with the suction cups that dot each of their arms. Plus, they can detach an arm on purpose! Why?

Snowman Letter Matching Activity Worksheet

January 17, 2018 admin

Snowman Alphabet Matching Worksheet Alphabetic Recognition Alphabetic recognition is sometimes called letter recognition or letter identification, but all three terms have the same meaning. They refer to the ability to visually recognize letters of the alphabet. This includes the ability to name each letter and match that letter name with its written form, both upper and lower case, and in both manuscript and cursive. Alphabet recognition also includes the ability to distinguish between similar looking letters, like C/G, M/W, d/b and p/q. Letter recognition is important because it enables beginning readers to figure out how printed text is associated with the spoken language. Having a mastery of letter names can make learning letter sounds easier for young readers. The sounds of many letter names are closely related to the sound the letter sounds. For example, say “d” and you will hear the /d/ sound. Say “m” and you will hear the /m/ sound. Many letters of the alphabet follow this,... Read More...

November 26, 2017 admin

The Benefits of Homeschooling with The Adventures of Scuba Jack Many parents of young children are considering homeschooling today. While making the choice to homeschool can be overwhelming, parents considering this path should know they are not alone. In 2011, there were over 2 million American homeschooled students, with that number increasing about 2%-8% each year since.

The holiday season is officially upon us. And with it brings a combination of headaches and joy for all the teachers as well. Trying to contain all the kids’ excitement and actually have them focus on learning a bit is a difficult task. Listed below are a few days that are more challenging than others around this time of year. The Day Before Thanksgiving Thanksgiving is a day to give thanks for all that we have in our lives. The day before Thanksgiving is a day that teachers somehow just have to survive. One after another, students show up at your desk informing you on what they have planned for the next day. Did you ask for them to tell you about their itinerary for Thanksgiving? Probably... Read More...
Introducing Solid Foods To A Child’s Diet-Stress Free Baby Food

November 14, 2017 admin

Stress-Free Baby Food-Introducing Solid Foods To A Child's Diet I have written before about some common parenting stressors (namely sleep and potty training) that, in most cases, tend to work themselves out with little to no parental intervention. Let’s go ahead and add baby food to that list! You can’t get much more basic than eating, pooping and sleeping, and kids are typically going to master all of these skills eventually regardless of what we do (or do not do) to encourage them. I will discuss how to introduce solid foods to a child's diet and how it can be stress free. Now that my youngest daughter is approaching the 6-month mark (say it ain’t so!), I have been starting to think about how I would like to approach her introduction to solid foods. With both girls, I have thankfully had access to the resources, information, support, and anatomy necessary to make breastfeeding successful. Because the nutritional content of breastmilk...

Happy Thanksgiving from the Adventures of Scuba Jack

November 7, 2017 admin

Happy Thanksgiving from The Adventures of Scuba Jack Thanksgiving Day is traditionally a day for families and friends to get together for a special meal. The meal often includes a turkey, stuffing, potatoes, cranberry sauce, gravy, pumpkin pie, and vegetables. Thanksgiving Day is a time for many people to give thanks for what they have. Also, it's a day that's set as a reminder for us to be grateful. Thanksgiving is a special holiday: a whole day focused on spending time with loved ones and being thankful, without much of the commercialism that has crept into many other holidays. But before you pull up to the table to enjoy your delicious Thanksgiving feast, consider the opportunities this day presents to teach children about the important values of Thanksgiving, such as thankfulness, gratitude, and family. Here is a fun Roll the Dice game to play with your kids: http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/dinner_dice.pdf http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/corn.pdf http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/color_dice.pdf http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/turkey_dice.pdf http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/pilgrim_boy.pdf http://adventuresofscubajack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/myflower.pdf Best, Ms. Beth Read More...
Halloween Treats That Are Fun to Eat

October 22, 2017 admin

Halloween Treats That Are Fun to Eat Halloween is a fun time of the year for parties and gatherings. It is a time of year for costumes and trick or treating. I just came back from a day in Salem, Massachusetts and my son and I had an amazing time. We walked around and learned some history, ate some great Mexican food and enjoyed a candlelit tour. The decorations were amazing and ghouls were lurking on every street corner if you dared to take a picture with one. We were walking down a street passed the old cemetery and saw some fun Haunted Houses to send a shiver down your spine. My 12 year old son opted out of these frightening experiences. Halloween is in full-swing, and while kids love to dress in costumes and cause mischief, parents dread the thought of all the leftover candy and the tremendous amount of calories that accompany the day. But Halloween is actually... Read More...

Cloth Diapering Made Easy If you’ve ever thought about trying cloth diapers, my advice is to DO IT! We’re on our second kid in cloth diapers, and I still love them as much as I did the first time around. Why? - Cloth diapers are cheaper than disposable diapers. - Cloth diapers produce less waste and are better for the environment. - Cloth diapers give you the peace of mind of knowing exactly what you have resting 24/7 against your baby’s most sensitive parts. Now, if you start trying to shop for cloth diapers online, you will likely fall down a rabbit hole of adorable $25+ all-in-one diapers with the most beautiful prints you have ever seen. These diapers are the most like disposable diapers in shape and function, and they require very little guesswork since the waterproof cover is attached to the absorbent diaper. These make good diapers for a babysitter or daycare, but for everyday use … RESIST... Read More...
St. Patrick’s Day Worksheets for Kids!

March 14, 2017 admin

Saint Patrick's Day is celebrated each year on March 17th. In Ireland, Saint Patrick's Day is both a holy day and a national holiday. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland as he was the one who brought Christianity to the Irish. According to legend, Saint Patrick used a shamrock to explain about God. The shamrock, which looks like clover, has three leaves on each stem. Saint Patrick told the people that the shamrock was like the idea of the Trinity, that in the one God there are three divine beings: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The shamrock was sacred to the Druids, so Saint Patrick's use of it in explaining the trinity was very wise. Although it began in Ireland, Saint Patrick's Day is celebrated in countries around the world. People with Irish heritage remind themselves of the beautiful green countryside of Ireland by wearing green and taking part in the festivities. Some of it’s traditions are: Parades - Parades are oftenly... Read More...
