Paper Mache Week 2

Hi Everyone,

It's the second week of our paper mache project and some of us have applied up to 8 layers paper to our balloon bases while others are making gigantic paper mache bugs and only have 3 or 4 layers at the moment.

Now that the kids can see that their projects are starting to look like bugs instead of a sticky, ugly balloons we are hearing fewer complaints about how messy or boring this project is. Instead, the kids are now talking about how they are going to decorate their bugs. There are some very creative ideas buzzing about the classroom at the moment. These bugs are going to look awesome!
