Geodesic Clubhouse
Construction   Kris Fontes

Dear YES Mag,
I teach seventh grade art and have been teaching the geodesic dome for about three years. Because of the logistics of storing the large domes, I have my students create head pieces/hats from the dome. We use the same procedure, just smaller. The newspaper logs are made from only two small squares and cut to about five and a half inches each. The students then use their imaginations and anything they can gather to embellish their creations. This is a very popular project!
