Time to build another house! This time though they had two houses! One for winter and one for summer. We cut down on the size here and made both fit in one square on the board. We made the house out of the craft tooth picks. We made the tent out of craft sticks that I split down the middle to make thinner. We rubberbanded the ends together and stuck the bottom part into the salt dough. Then my son wove brown paper to represent the mats that they used to cover their summer tents. This we cut and wrapped around the poles and glued together. (hint: once the paper is woven, cover the back in painters tape or some such. Then when you cut it, it holds together.) My son even added a totem pole out of the scraps. We took pictures of his final house and uploaded it to a new power point and then wrote a description of the house.
