Developing the LIFESMART website

LIFESMART Toolkit: Pinterest and Folding

I use many hands-on tools and online tools to document projects and narrate stories. Each week, I will publish one blog post describing some of the tools in our LIFESMART toolkit. This week's tools are Pinterest and folding.

Yesterday, we decided to build on our existing website to create the LIFESMART Families website. A journey that began in 2007 suddenly led to a website!

We are documenting the project on folded paper plates. We can easily track project development using the visual and tactile folded tool. We are compiling the information on Pinterest so we can share project information in the LIFESMART community. Community members can see how activities from long ago are influencing our projects today.

Build a torus ring. The torus ring uses four paper plates.
