5th grade Loom Weaving




5th grade students discussed the characteristics of weaving and made their own looms.  Students were encouraged to experiment with different stitches and combinations, and some students even created their own new stitch!

2nd grade Weaving




2nd graders discussed  weaving and looked at traditional Navajo weavings.  Students created a paper plate loom and bent the warp sections up to create a bowl.  Students are completing the final touches by adding paint to the inside to complete their patterns.
