"Flies on the Wall[paper]" & the Bubble Guy

Today, the Bubble Guy showed up to the deCordova, and I must say- teaching Art with the Bubble Guy around is like trying to nail Jell-o to a tree.  When I got the kids corralled again, we finished up most of the projects from the week and used scraps to create "Flies on the Wall[paper]".  We used whatever we could find in the scrap pile and cut out any type of bug the kids could come up with.  We glued our creations onto pieces of wallpaper from the sample book.  It was a really fun way to end the week.  Below are a few straggler pics of projects finished today, the Bubble Guy, and our bugs.  Student comments follow.  Bring on Eco-Mission, Week 3!!

*This was a fantastic project that unfortunately doesn't photograph well, but another wonderful teacher gave us the idea.  You can do this one at home with just a few supplies.  See link here: Tinfoil Project
