I discovered a really cooooool site that allows you to create virtual sand art called Thisissand.com. I remember as a kid going to the beach with my family and one of the fun activities we did was going to a beach vendor to create sand art in a bottle– what fun memories!! Thisissand.com is just plain fun and here is a warning– it can be very addicting!! In addition it is very easy to use– just left click and you will begin to drop the virtual sand on the blank canvas. I should mention that you click on the gray box in the right hand corner of the screen for the directions. Press “C”to change the color of the sand , “E” to erase the drawing, “M” to mute the sound (yes it even sounds like sand falling!!). Screen shots will save your creation or you can opt to save your creation to the art gallery. The sand art below is an example from the art gallery. This could be a very fun, collaborative art activity using the SMARTBoard.ENJOY!
