Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Youth will make their own book in this hands-on session with a MCBA instructor.
Measurable Outcome(s)
The kids who were there made beautiful and very clever books. Everyone went home with a great pop-up book. Kids learned about paper, folding, and cutting and how books are put together. They used a template to make a dragon pop-out. Tom was excellent at giving step by step instructions. It was quiet in the room because kids were working so hard on their projects! The kids listened carefully and were intent on what they were doing.
