Today we started making plaster eyeballs in class as a bit of an art excercise. Not everyone got to make them today but the rest will on Monday. We still need to do more sanding and painting. Here are some pics of the he class at work.

| All of the messy equipment we were using. |

| The plaster is in the balloons. Some of the class stayed in at lunch to make extra ones. |
 |
| Taking the balloon casing off after they have set. The class was amazed at the heat produced by the plaster as it was setting |
 |
| Time to sand the bottom of them so they are flat. |

| More sanding |

| It feels so smooth on my face! |

| I've got my eye on you (sorry bad jokes are a necessity in the class) |
Next week we will finish making the last 8 or 9 we need to do and the children will begin painting them so that they look like eyeballs. We will then varnish them so they have a bit of a glossy look.
Wow!! That looks like lots of fun. Cant wait to see the finally product.
