ACTIVITY 1 - MAKE A MAGICAL MOVING SERPENT<br />
IDEAS TO EXTEND THIS ACTIVITY<br />
Your students can try working together to make a really<br />
big version of the puppet by using wider strips of paper, or a<br />
really miniature one using smaller strips.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y could also experiment with the placement of the strings,<br />
sticking the puppet on the end of two sticks instead of hanging<br />
it from them or using different papers to construct the body.<br />
Encourage them to use their imagination to decorate their<br />
serpents!<br />
Ask your students to explore how their serpents might move in<br />
different ways to tell a story – they could create short animations<br />
or films with their serpents.<br />
Ask them to consider other magical creatures they could make<br />
with these materials and what kind of otherworldly places they<br />
come from, for example the Caterpillar in our ballet of Alice’s<br />
Adventures in Wonderland.<br />
