Portfolio Piece #2
I did lesson 44 (paper bag puppets) as a way of reviewing form, dimension, and depth. I though this was an important activity because children like puppets and this is a way for them to creatively design their own puppets. This activity also helps reinforce the concept of form because the students have to do all sides. In real life, backsides are not blank and that is important for children to understand. I liked the activity even though I am terrible at making realistic animals!

Yes! I too think that puppetry is a great inroad for children to utilize art in a manner of play and also bring in literary elements and theatre–a wonderful activity!
