The Final Product - Paper Mache'd Out

Paper mache is a hugely messy ordeal.

I planned the lesson for 3 sessions of back to back to back (totaling 1 hour and 20 minutes) of art. This was not enough.

Upon reflection:
Paper mache should be done in consecutive days.
After day 1...the balloons usually show patchy areas.
So on day 2...the class should patch this up.
Also on day 2 - the balloon should be popped and air released.
We didn't do that so during the week the balloon pulled the paper mache and some of the balloons "imploded" (sunk in).

So we added 2 more classes and we finally got our globes done. Thank you grade 3's!
