Volcano!

The past couple years the elementary school has put on an art night. Last year was lots of fun so when Zach's teacher asked me if I could help with the second grade's project I was excited to do it. (plus I thought it'd give me a mental vacation from blue and gold) In the beginning it was supposed to look like a 2nd grade volcano worksheet on the wall where they label all the parts of the volcano.

No problem I thought. Paper on the wall with 4 other parents to help. We'll be done in no time! The next week came and the location for the volcano changed. Now it was to be half in the library and half in the hall. Oh okay I thought. We can do that. It will be a little bit different but we can do that. Then I heard about this dragon they had built and the kids had made all the scales for it, cool idea I thought.....then I saw the dragon.



and then I started to freak out! On to plan B C D and F. All that Friday I worried and I stewed and then I figured it out! Wait until Josh gets home and the kids are in bed and then he'll help me figure it out! So figure it out we did.

We built us a little frame....


covered it with chicken wire and filled the chicken wire with plastic grocery bags and then brown bulletin board paper, construction paper hands, and crate paper.....



Did the other side so they could label it....



and there you have a half of a volcano that is worthy of such a dragon!
