Yesterday in my E1 (grades 1-3) class, the creativity at the stations grew larger than I could have expected. Literally.
Here is a simple dough and cookie cutter station, where a group of girls created an imaginary French bakery called " La Boulangerie Bakery." They connected their designs from a class work on France, and one girl's trip there.
Can you see the little Eiffel Tower on one of the pastries?
They then connected with the students at the Origami Station, who taught them how to make cupcake holders for their creations.
Meanwhile, at the Origami Station, the paper felt too small. So they used butcher roll paper. Which again, felt too small. So they taped four pieces together to make a mega large square.
And the mega cup is born.
...and then...
Lastly, they made a large paper crane and attached it to the cup to make a mask hat... which, may or may not look a little like KKCrane meets Adam from Beetlejuice.
It couldn't be denied, it was a great hour of creativity!
