The 3rd grade is exploring textiles from around the world. They will be weaving and building their own circular loom.

The very first step is creating their own loom out of a clay slab. They will add texture and three dimensional elements to the loom. Along the way, students will learn how to identify the origin of a particular textile based on its pattern. After the loom is complete, the students will learn to weave!
