Photo block puzzle

A photo block puzzle is an attractive way to display your pictures and also makes a great gift.

To begin, photos are selected, cropped and sized to fit the desired design. Then they are printed and trimmed.

Next the images are glued to the block faces.

The final product can have images on as many sides of the blocks as you like. You can also choose to have one photo cover all the blocks or to have images just cover one or two.

There is a kit available from the library that includes all the materials you need to complete this project. Come check it out!

Kids Maker Day

K-4 students — Tue, 28 Mar 2017 19:04:12 +0000

On March 27, local grade K-4 students gathered at the Portal Library for a Maker Day.

We started with a challenge to design and build a structure using toothpicks and mini-marshmallows.

After that students made their own books. Topics included spring, the seasons, weather, and cooking.

Students’ favorite activity was the photo challenges and digital photography. Below are some of the pictures students took.

We ended the day by making “unbirthday” cards for family and friends.
