Many thanks to everyone who sent in newspapers last week for our workshop. As a result we were able to create a boat with our visiting artist, which the children have enjoyed using outdoors at choice time.
The children were excited to meet the artist who showed us lots of things he had made out of recyclable materials and all of the inventions he has created. The children liked the multi-scissors and thought about how this would b useful in class when they were cutting tape.
The classes worked collaboratively over the day to build their boat, learning lots of new skills and following instructions. They used clippers, ties, learned to fold and roll and use the inventions provided.
"I loved working with my friends using the rolling machine" Keira
"The machine makes the paper roll really tight and makes it strong and hard so it will stay up" Courtney
"You needed to fold the paper in a special way, glue it and use the rolling machine. The ties stuck all the sticks together" Iyinope
