Although we have not gotten an answer regarding if and when we can sell our products to begin raising money for our next field trip, we will begin working on them on Wednesday, December 11th.
We will be decorating...AKA PAINTING!! scenes onto baked salt dough ornaments
Since the crayon melter was difficult to use and no one seemed to keen on it we will either forget about the crayon ornaments or test it with a blow dryer. Finally, we will also make holiday cards with some print making techniques. There will be different stations set up and we will briefly go thru each station at the beginning of the meeting and you decide where you want to work.
With these stations, we must have a sink handy. Therefore our meeting will be held in Room 157
If you cannot attend meeting, please let me or Ms. McKenna know

Short Story Illustrations
For our first project, we are going to create an illustration based off of a short story or movie.
But there is a catch!!
The illustration will need to show a different character's perspective.
For example, the story I chose was Jack and the Beanstalk so I am creating an illustration from the Giant's perspective (see sketch below)
