Sequence:
Day One: (based on a one hour period day)
| Intro to project |
| Model cutting petals |
| Start cutting petals |
| Students will need 3 different sizes/shapes to make a successful flower. (see photos below) |
Day Two:
| Complete cutting petals |
| Model layout of petals |
| lay out largest petals only first! |
| Model gluing petals - leaving a gap that will be "closed" later |
| Start laying out and gluing petals |

Day Four:
| cut leaves to go around cup |
| hot glue leaves around base of cup to cover the cup |
| Step 1 Lay out largest petals - notice the gap! |
Step
2 Add medium petals where the large overlap, leave one extra aside for filling in the gap |
Step
3 Add the smallest petals in between the medium ones, leave 2 aside for either side of the medium extra petal |
Step
4 Add glitter as an accent to your petals... don't forget about the extras! And remember that patterns help create interest! |
