5th grade Zentangle Explosion Box

1. Draw 3 lines across the page.

Add 2 more bonus lines were needed. 

The lines should either be straight or curvy, but not both.

2. Fill in the spaces with Zentangles.

                                      

                                      
                                   
                                       
                                             3. When the original sheet is finished have
                                              students write AP on the back (artist proof).

4. Make 10 photo copies. Students should trade

copies with their friends.

5. Make a box.

6. From the copies make the tubes. 

Do not cut the original Zentangle sheet.

7. Roll 2 sheets, which will make 16 tubes. Then

start building the first layer of your box.

8. Add 2 or 3 more layers and attach the box to the

original. 

Done!

While they are working on them I store them in the clay drying room.
