Summer term is traditionally dedicated to dimensional work. Ironically it is also when most of my schools have exhausted their resources and most of the funding, so a lot of the work I have done this term have been eco projects, using recycling materials.
A chance find in a cupboard gave these books a new lease of life.
The children absolutely loved making these. I thought that they would get bored repeating the folds on all the pages, but no they couldn't get enough!
It's off to the jumble sales for me, to gather more supplies.
Oh, I love making altered books with kids! My 6th graders did some big altered book projects - it was great fun, and their ideas blew me away. Thanks for sharing - I especially love the curled pieces in the folded pages. Cool idea.
