Tuesday 
 

 

   We sat around 7 pieces of paper shaped like a carrot. Anne cut them out into 14 carrot shapes and we moved them over to the corner so that we could stick them together. We had some brown tape, water and sponges. Anne did a  demonstration, she got the sponge and the water, put the brown tape on the wet sponge and did a Karate chop and stuck the tape on the carrot. Next Anne asked us to carry on with the sticking. 
 
   We stuck all of the pieces together like a big tent, then we cut out a circle for the base. We used a pen tied to a string like a  compass to mark it out. 
 
   On Friday we're going to blow it up. There's going to be a little porthole for us to crawl inside and we'll have to get on our hands and knees. 
 

 

 

Building with Paper

 

 

 

"It's easier to make it with than card because paper is easier to cut and things and its easier to bend. card is tough"

 
 
In the morning we cut all of our cigars shapes out of big sheets of paper. We started to stick them together with gum strip. We stuck the gum strip by pulling it across the sponge with water in and putting it onto the paper. 
 

 

  
When we had finished doing that we pulled it all out and it looked like a big wedding dress. We all had to work as a team and if we were going to walk on the paper we couldn't run, the paper was very thin. 

 

" I was surprised when I saw that massive paper. I've never seen massive paper like that."

 

"We used some brown tape and we had to put it on the sponge and pull it from under your hand to make it sticky. It's shiny and slimy. "

 

"It was really big. All of the rolls of paper were bigger than me and Glenn and Anne were rolling them out on the floor."
