1. Tear the 2 1/2 pages of newspaper into tiny strips
2. Place the strips in a blender with 5 cups of water. ASK AN ADULT. Cover the blender and blend the newspaper and water.
3. Pour about 1 inch of water into the pan. Pour the blended paper pulp into the measuring cup.
4. Put the screen into the pan. Pour one cup of pulp over the screen.
5. Spread the pulp evenly in the water with your fingers.
6. Lift the screen and let the water drain off.
7. Open the newspaper section to the middle. Put the newspaper on a waterproof surface. Place waxed paper in the center of the newspaper. Place the screen with the pulp on the waxed paper. Close the newspaper.
8. Carefully flip over the newspaper section so the screen is on top of the pulp. VERY IMPORTANT.
9. Place the board on top of the newspaper and press out extra water. Open the newspaper and take out the screen. Leave the newspaper open and let the pulp dry for at least 24 hours. When your paper pulp is dry, peel it off the waxed paper and write on it.
You can also ask your parents to bring home recycled paper for you to draw on.
