I'm happy to post some more photos of our recycled box designs, the creations are very unique and present a great deal of craftsmanship.

What kinds of group activities do you do with your class? What are the guidelines if any?

My fifth graders worked hard on their group projects and here's more creativeness to show! Top left is a bear delivering a pizza (half eaten I think, how rude!) the second is a Star Wars droid inspired by R2-D2, next is the Eiffel Tower with a Paris background, a football field with score board and a centaur with a bow and arrows. Which one is your favorite?

Recycled Box Project

Every so often it's nice to have students do a group activity. They learn to work together to construct a cohesive design and as a team they come up with some awesome projects.

This project was inspired by the Valentine's Day box idea. We got a late start because the kids were still working on their previous project and I hadn't collected enough tissue boxes from the parents and teachers.

Once I had all of the materials in place I asked my 5th grade classes to split up into groups. Their task was to design and construct a unique sculpture using tissue boxes, cardboard tubes, foam sheets and construction paper. They worked efficiently to meet the deadline otherwise they'd spend an eternity on this project.

Once all was said and done the projects were presented and guest judges came in to pick a winner. Kids this age love a competition! It was fun and the kids and I had a blast!
