Making a heart mosaic.
Quick Lesson Reminders / Tips
Gather up scrap paper, old magazines, flyers, junk mail and any paper you might want to use. I found some old calendars that I cut up. (remember to ask your parent’s permission before cutting anything) I even cut up pieces of wrapping paper. You will need scissors and glue and if you have wax paper that would really help. If you don’t have those supplies, look at the video links and draw out an idea for your own ideas for a future mosaic project or how one would look in your house.
