For Earth Day this year Carissa's class was tasked with making a creation out of recycled items. This project was right up her alley and for days and days it was all she could talk about. When the day finally came for us to make Carissa was ecstatic. She kept finding tidbits to use, things to add, ways to make it bigger and better. I'm not sure she could have made it much bigger or better because she turned out fabulous! She was huge (nearly as tall as Carissa!) and stylish in her recyled fashions. She had plastic bottles for arms and legs, a box for a body, pop bottle lids as dots, painted newspaper head, milk jug caps eyes and strips of bottle labels as hair. She even included a stomach that opened to reveal a room inside, complete with battery chairs and tables and two swinging chandeleers. She was a pretty amazing project and Carissa was rewarded with the top prize for most creative project. Way to go Carissa!
