Just a word of caution, I can't cut the burlap we bought a while back. Every
time I tried it set off my asthma. Keep in mind you might need an
alternative incase one of your kids is sensitive to it.

Hello all,
I'm putting together my lesson plans for the upcoming year, and am trying
to think of ideas using burlap. I have a ton of dusty old burlap in a
variety of colours and can't really think of what to do with it. I thought
of soft sculptures (which might be fun, because I know that my students
were really taken with Oldenberg's Giant Hamburger) but I am afraid that
since it is such a loose weave that it might be hard to sew and stuff. If
anyone has any interesting ideas for burlap, I would really appreciate
them. I teach grade 7 and 8. (Another thing I have a lot of - and can't
immediately think of a use for - is a sort of really thin bamboo which is
twisted into a spiral; it might actually be some sort of dried vine)
Thanks,
Laura
