Weaving

The Bees learned how to weave paper. They independently cut out their fish shape, cut vertical slits and wove in patterned paper. This project is great for their fine motor skill development! It was completed with some metallic marker embellishments.

Collagraph Printmaking

All of the students got their hands dirty learning about printmaking.

We explored creating textural effects and making color choice using colored paper and different inks. The Eagles and Elephants invented their own city skylines:

The Bees invented their own robots, specifically a robot they would like to have as a best friend. Each of them have interesting back stories and special functions.
