Christmas Craft in P5/6

We made our own shrinking keyrings in the oven! We couldn’t believe how much they changed after only 3 minutes!

 

 

We also had our first sewing lesson! We designed a Christmas bauble and cut the felt to the correct size and shape. Then we started to sew, filled the bauble with stuffing and added a ribbon to help us hang them on our Christmas trees at home! We had lots of fun and can’t wait until our next sewing project!

P6 Recycled Rockets

I made my rocket out of drain pipe, plastic cups and bottles.  It took about 2 weeks to make, the hardest bit was to stick it all together.  I really enjoyed painting it and my Papa helped me finish it.

Basically, I started off with a coca cola bottle and then I used special tape that is paintable.  After that, I used a toilet tube and made a slit, I pulled it tight enough to go over the top.  Finally, I taped it with the tape.  For the shuttle I used two toilet tubes taped together, then I used a small amount of a toilet tube and cut it to a point, taped it down and for the wings I used a pizza base and cut two wing shapes out of it.  Finally I added a triangle for the tail fin and painted it!

My rocket is made out of an empty juice bottle.  The wings are empty toilet roll tubes.  I covered it all in white card, cut out the wings and stuck them on.  We painted the top of it and the wings, then covered it in stars.  I enjoyed painting it the most.
