We had an afternoon of miniature food making (for the chinampas), made papier mache pots for the big house and added details to our helmets.
I LOVE the helmets!! They are looking really good!!

| Took this when the afternoon sun was coming through the window so the wolf looks a little yellow - it's really a tasteful gray :) |
 |
| Super cute jaguar. Despite the fact that jaguars normally have BLACK noses this child chose to do a pink one :) |
 |
| The green thing is a snake :) I think it needs a tongue! |
Gotta say I've loved watching the kids make these. They're the best any class has ever done - and they're always wearing them. One child yesterday painted her parrot helmet bright red, then put it on her head. She had a nice red ring around her hair and forehead for most of the day :)
It's nice to know they're enjoying the project :)
They came out beautiful Lynn! What a fun project for your kids!!

Thanks Sue :) They're definitely enjoying themselves although I have to say the classroom was a disaster on Friday afternoon with glue and paint everywhere. I felt I couldn't leave it for the cleaners so spent an hour with the broom and sponge after school :)

Nice to meet you - I'll visit you later today too :)
DeleteThey are gorgeous! You get such high quality work out of your kiddos! Neat stuff, Lynn...
ReplyDeleteI'll post the feathered parrots later - the bird people are a little slower than the mammals for some reason :)
DeleteWhat a great project!!
