Fifth Grade Loves Finger Weaving!
My fifth grade figured out how to finger weave in an interesting way. One student started it and slowly added more students onto his "chain". Four students were weaving one large piece. We ran out of time before they added the fifth student. Very smart and creative!
3rd Grade Rizzi Birds: These should be framed!
The original idea for this project is from www.deepspacesparkle.com
As I always do with all inspired art projects, I added my own twist, making them narrative!
