Explorer Project 

Explorer. The most visible of your explorer project is your explorer himself. Make him look as authentic as possible, dressed in the attire of that period of time. You can use many different types of materials.

  • Face - draw, photo copy face and increase to correct size, craft "eyes"

  • Hair - yarn, doll hair (crafts stores, WalMart), cotton

  • Armor - aluminum foil, silver wrapping paper

  • Clothing - fabric scraps, gift wrapping paper, construction paper, wash cloths/towels

  • Shoes - construction paper, black marker, leather scraps

  • Clothing embellishments - old cheap jewelry, ribbon, lace scraps, cotton (fur), drapery tie-backs

 Be creative! You will put all the parts together on a construction paper poster at school.
