Polystyrene Homework Challenge

Polystyrene Homework Challenge’

First I thought that I would do a tree hut, so started collecting sticks. But then I thought that maybe that was going to bit a hard, so I changed my idea to a man-hut instead of a man-cave.

I got some help from my mum and dad. My mum helped me glue the sticks on the cardboard and my dad helped me hollow it out a bit.

• First I had to collect the materials I needed and while I was doing that, my dad hollowed a bit out of my polystyrene.
• Then I glued the sticks onto the cardboard. I let it dry over night.
• I then wrapped the cardboard around the polystyrene and stuck nails in so they wouldn’t go right through.
• After that I painted the white bit above the cardboard green so it looked like grass.
• I then got lots of twigs and put them in gaps between the cardboard and the polystyrene. I also glued some the the sticks around the polystyrene.
• I am Finished!

After I finished I thought that I did good. I really enjoyed it and I am proud of myself! When came in and brought in my project I was amazed at all the different designs! My favourite project was the dragon because it was very creative.
