Super Stained Glass Windows
When we visited Raby Castle we saw some stained glass windows. After we returned to school we created some of our own.
First we got an OHP / acetate sheet.
We then tore up pieces of tissue or cut cellophane.
Next we glued this to the acetate sheet.
We made sure there were no spaces between the colours.
After that we glued over the top to make a varnish and to stick down all of the edges.
Then we had also been learning about different 2D shapes in numeracy, so we chose from a selection of shapes the frame we would like for the window.
Finally we glued these together and displayed them on our corridor windows.
They look fantastic!

It was hard when you had to stick all of the paper on the plastic window. We had to make sure there were no gaps. When it is sunny the windows look amazing.
