English Class fourth graders designed and crafted cases for themselves under the supervision of Ms. Virpi. They drew their plans, created a pattern, cut the fabric pieces, sewed on a zipper, stitched the pieces together and finally added the eyes.
Of course the final step of any craft project is filling out the self-evaluation form. -Was I able to carry out my plan? -Did I take responsibility for putting materials away? -Is my project made neatly and with care? These and other questions need to be answered thoughtfully. In general the fourth graders were very pleased with their own work. Imagine the joy when a couple of pupils figured out that their cases could double as puppets! Watch the short video clip below!
