Creative Arts: Papermaking, Storyboarding and Bookmaking

Find out how to make your own paper, to create your personal story and to devise your own little book. Use the techniques with pupils to capture what was learnt on a farm visit or during another outdoor experience. Activities are fun (and messy at times) but provide an imaginative way to record achievements or happy memories.
