My second grade crew today went a little overboard with the construction paper, but I still found many gems!!!! I'm really enjoying seeing how the kids approach this project. Creating the environment for self expression is such a gift!!!!
Hi Mr. E! I love this lesson and was hoping to try it with my art class of 1-3 graders. I was just wondering if you used paper mache to cover the water bottles? They look terrific!
Thanks so much for these great lessons-such an inspiration! Did you do the glue, tissue and liquid starch on day one and then add details the second class? Also, how did you attach the pipe cleaners? I'm having trouble getting them to stick with school glue...thanks again!

We taped them on I think....before the tissue paper? Sorry...been a while since we did these. Yes...2 days...first the covering...then day two the details.
