A Sneak Peek of the Navigators' Amazing Plastic Cap Auction Project!

Stand back and take a look. Can you tell what it is? 
Scroll down to the bottom and see if you're correct!

The whole school has been helping the Navigators collect plastic caps for our auction project. The process has taught us a lot about teamwork and about making a difference in our world. 
(Be sure to take a look at our stop motion advertisement called "Help Our Planet" on YouTube!)


First we just played with the caps and came up with some mini designs. 

The Seabury School logo

Then we looked at some artwork of a famous artist and tried to find crayons that matched his palette.

Coloring his painting, Starry Night
  
Ready to start covering the two panels of our project. 
Notice how big it will be.

See the resemblance? 


All we need is a few more plastic caps and a lot of bidders at our upcoming Seabury School Auction, Casino Royale! 
Hope to see you there!!
