The Sunflowers

As part of our IPC theme “Houses and Homes” we go the sunflowers, who are now beading plate experts to make a home using the beads. They had to take a lot of things into account. How many beads to use, size and thickness so that it would stick when ironed. How many windows in each house, doors? A few even decided to make a skyscraper. Then from this pushed themselves even further and started to make a skyscraper landscape view. The sunflowers are really good at challenging themselves and always bounce ideas of each other.
