For the set-up portion of this activity, we want to make sure that we have all of the
materials that we need really handy. So, to begin with, we're going to need our newspaper,
foil, we want to have large sheets of foil that we can pull from. We're going to need
small pieces and large pieces, but right now, we want to just have larger pieces that we
can cut down to size if needed. We're also going to need tape, and quite a bit of it.
And also, our pipe cleaners, we're going to need two pipe cleaners that we'll end up cutting
down a little bit smaller and down to size. If you feel more comfortable with cutting
the foil, that's fine too. Same with the newspaper. I like to kind of wing it and just rip it
up and find the right size. We want to have everything ready and in place before we go.
Things like embellishments, we're going to push those off to the side, so paint, glitter,
paintbrush, all of those things, we don't need those right now. Googley eyes can stay
aside; we really want to focus on the main structure of the turtle and work from there.
We've got about, we've got the four legs, the head, the tail, the top and the bottom
to construct in this part.
