On the home page, in the search bar type suitcase and once the page loads scroll down to the suitcase under the 'other' section on the page. Today we are going to create our suitcases from last week using purple mash.

Here is one I made to show you as an example.

► ART AND DESIGN

Following on from Yesterday's lesson today we are going to create the design for our paper mache hot air balloons. If your balloon is dry after you have designed your balloon tmeplate you can apply it straight on to your paper mache.

First we are going to use the template below to draw and design the design we would like on our paper mache balloon. Here are some ideas from real hot air balloons to give you some inspiration. Rememebr to draw in pencil and colour in very neatly using felt pens or colouring pencils.

Now once you have designed your balloon and are happy 'if' your paper mache is dry and you are happy that it is strong enough and doesn't need any more layers adding to it you can apply your design to your paper mache. If your balloon is not dry or you hae added more layers, please wait until it is fully dry and strong before attempting this step.

Here's how to perpeare your balloon and apply your design, please watch Miss Martin's video below.
