Team 2 Technology -Paper making in Room 7



We have had to solve problems along the way to making our paper.
We used old picture frames and had to stretch the shade cloth net as tight as we could and staple it to the picture frames.
We discovered that only newspaper mushed up into a nice paper pulp to dip our frames into. Coloured paper and even white treated paper would not blend into a suitable watery pulp.
We are now having fun trying adding extras like small leaves and flower petals to our paper during the process. We are also enjoying making our paper into usable objects such as notebooks and gift cards.
