4) It is your turn to make your own shadow puppets.
You should use recycled materials. Your shadow puppet does not need to be very big. While you make it, think of the following:
- Type of material
- Transparency of material
- Colour of material
Attach a chopstick or a satay stick or any simple stick behind the shadow puppet so that you can hold the puppet easily and your hand does not get projected onto the screen!
Bring the shadow puppet to school on Monday (26 Oct)
Have fun creating your own shadow puppets!

Yes Amir. Fabric is a material used to make socks. You can try out to see if light is completely or partially blocked. What would the shadow looks like? Try out in your room at night with a torch light. Have fun!
