First graders are almost complete with their toilet paper tube and scrap paper creativity stretcher. Many of the examples can be found on our online art gallery at
Artsonia. I love this creativity stretcher as much as my students because they have the freedom to create and develop their own ideas without any direction from me. The only two rules I have; students may only use scrap paper to create shapes and lines and any details. No markers, crayons or pencils can be used, and at least one cardboard tube must be included in the final design. I wish I could record each and every single story the students tell me about his or her creation. The imaginations are amazing! I love how many have a three dimensional appearances in relief and sculpture.
