Weaving our way through Visual Art!

 

Grade 1 and 2’s from Topaz, Garnet and Opal are beginning the year by studying weaving as a craft. They will develop their cutting and fine motor skills, while learning this precise and expressive technique.

We will be looking at artworks made from knitting, sewing and weaving from different times and places. Students will explore weaving with paper, wool, string and objects.

Ehan (Topaz) “weaving is very hard.” Mahiya( Topaz) “so weaving is when we go up and down and it’s kind of tricky, you need to concentrate or it might go wrong.”
