All are invited to come to school next Saturday morning to begin creating and painting the scenery, props, and costumes for the show. We will also be creating headpieces for all of the animals. If you have any of the following supplies stashed in a closet somewhere, and you'd like to get rid of them, send them to school this week, and we'll transform them into costume pieces! Thanks!
- leopard-print fabric (roughly a yard, or more)
- brown fabric (not felt; any color brown; roughly a yard, or more)
- green fabric (not felt; roughly a yard, or more)
- black fabric (not felt; at least a yard, or more)
- white fabric (not felt; soft; at least a yard, or more)
- Decorative feathers, colored and white
- elastic, 3/4" or wider
- Some type of knit or woven shawl or netting (to be dyed black and used as a spider web)
- Newspapers (to be used for paper maché)
Please do not go out and purchase these items. I'll see what you send in by Friday, and will then purchase what we still need before Saturday.
There will be many projects to tackle. Helpful tools to bring:
- exacto knives
- drop clothes
- fabric scissors
- needles
- thread in "animal" colors
- wire snips
- staplers
