Merry Christmas

The pupils in the 6th grade have recycled toilet rolls, old magazines and scrap paper to make Christmas crackers to wish their mates a Happy Christmas.

Let’s have a look at the steps to follow:

1- They write their wishes on a piece of scrap paper.




2- They wrap the toilet paper with some colour tissue paper.




3- They fasten the end of the cracker with a string ribbon.



4- They put their wishes into the roll and fasten the other end of the cracker.

5- They cut out letters to make up their names out of old magazines.




6- They glue the names on the crackers.




7- They put the crackers into a bag and every pupil takes a cracker out at random. They are expected to open them on Christmas Eve.



It has been a collaborative task; while some pupils were cutting out the letters, others were wrapping the rolls and gluing the names. Due to this collaboration, 15 crackers have been created in a session of 45 minutes. The writing of the wishes was carried out in a previous session.
