Beautiful! I was looking for something fun an different for my 8th grade students and this will fit the bill. Do youo have them look at old neon signage first? To get ideas for connectors and shapese? Do you use a rubric to grade these?
Thanks! Last year when my husband first did this he laminated them. I think this year we might try spray fixative instead (with windows open after school).
Thanks! We worked in this for about 5 class periods total. How long it takes depends on your length of class periods and how much prep work you do with them.
Yes, I think they could, but expect less detail. Also, be very clear about expectations for child dust (how to shake it off over garbage, not blow it or shake it into the table). Also, be clear about not touching the face or other kids with dirty hands! :)
