This was such an unusual project but turned out really cool. Each child had a piece of burlap. She discussed how there is a warp and weft. To unweave the burlap the students pulled out the weft. Then they weaved in yarn to create a design. She discussed complementary colors and used the color wheel to explain that concept to the students. She also explained what monochromatic meant. Beads were added as embellishments. It made a very neat wall hanging. I was surprised by how much the students really enjoyed this project.
Here are the youngest students in our group posing with their finished creations. Most of the older students didn't finish in class.
