Paper Mache

Fourth grade students expressed their creativity by designing and building their own paper mache projects. Paper mache is a composite material consisting of paper pieces, sometimes reinforced with textiles, bound with an adhesive, such as glue or starch. Creating art like this reignites the students' imagination, stimulates their mind and can improve their overall well-being. Great job, fourth grade!
