OHP Creations

The possibilities of the OHP for creativity are endless and parallel and extend the possibilities of the light boxes that are common place in many preschool environments.

The resources to create "art" with were available on the table the OHP was on these included: string, pipe cleaners, lollypop sticks, colour paddles, cocktail stirrers, colour blocks, magnifying glasses, clear acetates and white board markers.

Given freedom children created some amazing compositions, and here are a couple of them.

There is more explanation on the designs at All Play on Sunday

And there is SO many cool ideas for using lightboxes at Play at Home Mom

Bob's Cars

This is a simple book I created for a primary assembly in a special school- I can't remember the theme but I promise it was relevant. I have since lost the document I created way back then so made a new copy available now (free of course) from alljoinin.net. It is identical, bar picture style to those below.

Sorry about photo quality

Incredibles Peg Dolls

After making the other superheroes I was requested to make a fifth so that we could use them for my Five Superheroes Rhyme. I couldn't think of another superhero, but mr Incredible was suggested. So I made Mr and Mrs so we had an even number!
