Harvest Party

Mrs. Garn's Class
 
The activity at Mrs. Garn's 2nd grade class Harvest Party was making leaf castings from cement. Local artist, Sandy Fry, came to show the class how to do it.

The key to making this a successful project with 24 kids is be prepared, do it outside and have lots of volunteers.  If you have never casted leaves before, try it by yourself before trying it with the kids.

They measured and mixed the sand, cement, colorant and water until it was just the right consistency.
