Ah, the school project science standard, the Volcano!
Our modern twist is using shredded documents vs. newspaper to get the built up mass. Mixing the shred and glue is a gooey highlight.
*By the way, though this volcano was made at Create STUDIO, It is an awesome in-class project with All campus only materials to make the mountain! Substitute the bottle for double rolled construction paper to make a tube and crumpled construction paper to make the rocks! Use a plastic lunch or science tray to catch the baking soda mixture once made.
We love this easy classroom project idea we spotted on Pinterest!
All you need is:
Plain paper
Black Sharpe
Straw (ask in your school cafeteria)
Watercolor paints
Have the kids do this in steps:
1. Draw a face on the paper with sharpie.
2. Take watercolors and paint basic lines for hair with a nice wet brush.
3. Now the straw comes in. Blow the watercolor with all your might
4. Admire your work!
Spotlighting yarn this month we wanted to know how yarn is made?
We found a cool link on Made How http://www.madehow.com/Volume-3/Yarn.html
where we got the scoop about how wool, silk, cotton, polyester and other fibers become yarn. It’s all In the twist!
