Paper Mache Horses

7th grade has started a paper mache horse project. The students first made their armature with newspaper. The students started the paper mache process with the mixture and newspaper.

The paper mache mixture I use is:


flour

glue (elmer's)

water

I mix all the ingredients until the mixture is a thick consistency like a thick creamy soup.

The students will add 2 layers and then they will paint their horses. I will add pictures later of the finished project.
