Jack in the Box

Yesterday we each made a Jack in the Box.
First we had to make a box using a net for a cube. Before we glued the box together we had to decorate the sides and make a spring out of folded strips of paper. After that we made our special characters. Quinn chose Tashi and Alice just chose a girl. Finally we glued everything together. We are pleased with the results.
Today we did some thinking about other ways we could use a net for a box. Here are some of our ideas: glasses, a bird house, cube with Christmas decorations, make a bigger one for storing things, draw pictures on it, jewellery box, toy box, building blocks - Eiffel Tower!
