3D recycled building constructions

I set the Grade 1 and 2 students a hard task this semester. Most of them rose to the challenge and if they didn't they learnt a lot about construction and persistence!! The challenge was to create a building using only recycled cardboard and tape. The construction could not be bigger than 30cm  and had to have one moving part. They finished off their buildings by adding the gorgeous building paper from ZART.

They absolutely love construction and it was such a joy to see them measuring and trying over and over to get it right. The results were mixed but it was such a big learning curve for them I know they all enjoyed the challenge.
