GIFT BOX ASSIGNMENT

DUE FRIDAY, JUNE 8

You will be making a gift box to give to someone else in the class. We will draw names on Wed. Make sure that you read what you have to do on p. 380 of the TX and that you bring all the materials you need with you to class on Wed, June 6.

You will design a gift box for candies/chocolates. Draw 2 copies of the net. Use one to make the box and the other to hand in. Write a paragraph about why your box should be chosen (look in TX p. 380). Make a 3D drawing of your gift box. Decorate it. Spend $1-$2 on candy/chocolate to put in your box. As discussed in class, if you don't think you can do this, let me know.

Here are some suggested materials to make your box:
- markers, colouring pencils
- glue/hot glue
- tape
- scissors
- contruction paper (just to decorate, not strong enough for actual box)
- cardboard/Bristol board/ cereal box
- graph paper
- bows, buttons, glitter, stickers, yarn, other decorations
