STEM – Miss Connolly’s Nature Bracelet
You can make a beautiful nature bracelet by taking some sellotape and loosely wrapping it around your wrist so that the sticky side is up.
Then, from things you find in the garden or when you are on a walk, you can make these nature bracelets.
These are some pictures of ones Mrs O’Connor and her daughter made. At the end we wrapped another piece of sellotape around the bracelet and cut it off so that we could keep it.
