Shadowing- Melodee Strong-2hrs

At Simpson housing I helped set up for the printing project Melodee was going to have the children do. They were going to be printing using foam core, which they would carve into by poking holes with wooden skewers and rolling ink onto brayers and then printing on paper.

Melodee when showing the demo was explaining how the kids should punch the holes into the foam core in order to make their images show. She explained how to put the ink on their “plate” and then print it (transfer onto paper).

She did it step by step, the children were very attentive and one of the kids was very adamant about helping her in leading the demo. I think he was just really excited. I thought it was really nice when Melodee acknowledged that he was being helpful and seeing that exchange of respect going both ways.
