01 : Construction


The pupils numbers each piece in pencil and carefully separates the pre-cut pieces. Each student folds and glues the pieces according to the instructions provided. Any childrens glue can be used. Some models are to be built as a group activity, others are individual models.

02 : Decoration

Each student can customize and decorate their models at any time. It's usually easier to decorate once the model is completed. Each pupil can use paint, markers, crayons, stockers. Downloading files to personalize the decoration is available for some models.


03 : Achievement

Each student brings home their construction. Parents may wish to order additional copies to duplicate what was done in the school. This would provide enjoyable family time to share with the children in order for them to explain what they learned in school.



The benefits of our models :

We propose to develop the work among students with models to perform individually or in groups. Each student can then reinvest in family work done at school.
