You will need a scissor, a paper circle template, colored paper in various patterns, and liquid glue to complete this project.
First, cut out your cardstock circle. Then you will take your colorful patterned paper and tear off petals. Glue the petals onto the cardstock in layers, starting on the outer edge of the circle and working your way towards the center. Included is a button to glue in the center, or you can cut out paper to use.

This week we are making straw airplanes. All you will need is a regular-sized sheet of paper or cardstock, four straws, scissor, tape, and markers etc. to decorate.
First, you will take each strip of paper and decorate them however you wish. Then tape the ends together, forming a circle.
Next, take your 4 straws and cut the bendy part off of each one. Tape each straw, evenly spaced apart, to the inside of the bigger paper circle just as the picture shows.
Then tape the straws to the outside of the smaller paper circle at the top, once again evenly spacing:
Your airplane is ready to fly! Which way does it fly the best? Does it fly better throwing it with the larger end forward, or the smaller end? Why do you think that is?
For our Tuesday Take-n-Make this week, we are making CD case mazes. You will need an empty CD case, wax sticks (also called Wikki Stix or Monkey String), or you can use hot glue and pipe cleaners, permanent markers to decorate with, and a marble.
First, decorate your case however you wish, sharpies work well for this. Then use your wax sticks to create your maze walls. Press the sticks in various ways to create a track. Make sure you have enough space for your marble to get through. Then test out your track!
The Week 5 Challenge is “Make a Lego creation that can be used as a tool.”
