At this point, we've started attaching our newly paper mached forms onto a flat board.
A nice start I think. Next time we will start adding houses, rocks, trees, etc. After that it will be a simple matter of painting our creations. Some of my students have expressed a desire to add a beach and ocean to their lighthouses. All we have to do is add another board to extend the scene. When I first told them we were going to be using paper mache for most if not all of the project there was a collective groan. They know how much work is involved. I think I've converted them though. They can see the lighthouses taking shape. I hope you can too. 8D
On a side note, I just found out I'm going to have a college student coming to observe me for the day. She wants to be an art teacher. Do I encourage or discourage her? LOL. I'm just kidding. I love this job. 8p
looking goood :p
