Weekly Wrap up!
Happy Friday!
Visual Arts: We started to make our looms for weaving. Weaving is one of the oldest surviving art forms and is connected in many ways through tapestries, clothing, to rugs. Weaving can be seen in countries such as India and Peru. Next week we will get to start to create our art and connect with those traditions.
Please note and disregard the letter sent home about weaving club, "Loom Room". Due to a high volume of interest, we have decided to cancel the club and practice the art of weaving in our classroom during instructional time!
Here is what we have been learning this week!
Language Arts: All week students have been learning about and writing alliterations! Students were engaged with writing their poems and noticing how alliterations have rhythm. Take a seek peak at our animal alliterations!
