My teacher set the colored tape, black construction paper, scissors, and chalk on the table.
All I needed was a little time and the chance to do something all by myself.
I concentrated on my work.
The tape was sticky and I had to use my hands and my mind to figure out how to keep the tape from sticking together.
I made lines on my paper.
My lines began to form shapes
I had plenty of time to create more lines and more shapes.
My cutting skills were improving as I worked to cut the tape but I didn’t notice.
Some of my friends created their own shapes too! What shapes do you see?
What a great idea Deborah. My tape obsessed preschoolers would love this.
I have seen your amazing tape creations!
my preschooler did this at school almost every day last year. She would bring home the biggest, bulkiest, glue-y-est, tape-y-est messes! Then, of course, wanted them proudly displayed! UGH! Drove me NUTS but was soOOOOOOO good for her!!! Most parents would complain…..LOL.
Haha – you are a sweet mom to display for her!
The international tape competition lives on!
I love the way you tell this story, Deborah. Perfect!
The school spent an entire week this summer on nothing but creating with tape. I wasn’t able to take photos of all the kids in action but I did get photos of their work. I plan to post more soon:) The competition does live on!!
