are easy to reproduce using a copier or printer, accessible step-by-step
directions instruct students how to make such unique crafts as a flying bird
ornament, a tessellation cube weight, a xylophone, a pointillism portrait, a
North Star finder, and a bowling game using inexpensive materials found at home
or in the classroom.
