Turn prepared paper pulp into real handmade sheets, adding petals, fibers, colored pulp, or other decorative inclusions.
Grades: K–1; TK only with a helper
Independence: Teacher-supported
For younger students: Teacher handles the blender/pulp-making step. TK pours pre-measured pulp with help; K/1 can learn pour → drain → couch → sponge/press independently.
Independent work: Use measured pulp cups and a photo sequence. Keep one wet-work tray per station and move finished sheets to a labeled drying rack.
Lesson flow: Teach the setup and visual routine first, then open as a rotating station when students can begin, work, and clean up independently.
Safety and cleanup: Follow the teacher notes and supervise any activity marked Teacher-supported.
