GLASSBLOWING 101


It's always satsifying when the campers listen intently during a lecture or demonstraton, then take that knowledge learned and move it to a new, higher level. I just love project-based assessments, don't you?

Last Thursday, I showed the campers a video of the glass artist Dale Chilhuly. I explained how glass was made and the process of hand-blown glass. They seemed very interested. One child in particular.
Monday I discovered this little gem in a cardboard box, in the back of the room!
Our science teacher asked me today if I knew anything about some missing test tubes from her lab. I said I didn't know anything.
