Today students looked at a piece of art called "Plains Buffalo Robe" and we read the story "The Goat in the Rug". Students then created a design for a Navajo Rug using many nature symbols.
Today we finished taking notes on Native American tribes and started to create designs for objects made from natural resources like clay, shells, animal hides and sheeps wool.
We will take a break from Tar Beach to create our own solar systems!
Students will learn a new technique with chalk to draw spheres. They will be cutting them out and gluing next week. Students also got to roll a piece of clay into a ball which will turn into a planet next week! |
