Today we started with some center time. While we were doing centers Ms. Boyer helped each of us choose our yarn for the yarn art project we worked on today. To start this project, Ms. Boyer read a story called Hands that was all about different types of hand work that people do. While Ms. Boyer was reading Mrs. Hamby was busy beginning to get her twig ready for the yarn art project. After the story, Mrs. Hamby showed us how to wrap our yarn around the twigs we collected last week to create a frame for our weaving. When we were finished our weaving we had our snacks and a quick recess break.
After our break, we read another story and then we went outside to look for natural objects that we could weave into our yarn for the final piece of the yarn art project. Some of us found interesting grasses, some people found feathers, and lots of us found beautiful leaves. We brought our treasures inside and weaved them into our frames. They look amazing! We will be putting them all up on display for you to see next week at parent-teacher conferences but here is a sneak peek at a few:
