For this project, we used styrofoam and paint to print symbols of our own creation onto another sheet of paper. We were to carve symbols that represent things in our life into the piece of styrofoam. Then, paint was added to the styrofoam and then pressed onto a sheet of construction paper. We did this with two different colors to create the print.
This could easily be integrated into either language arts or social studies. The history of the press could be discussed and compared to other methods of printmaking that exist.
