Salish Weaving!!!

Today we had such a wonderful presentation in class! We had a First Nations presenter come in and teach us all about Salish weaving! The kids had a blast and were really engaged and on-task, working all day on their beautiful creations! The students learned about the variety of materials used in weaving and learned about different patterns and what each pattern means. Then, they got to try their hand at weaving and make their own piece. Students paired up, two to a loom, and worked hard all day on their weaving. Hopefully they are all very proud of what they did, because they looked great! I snapped a few pictures at lunch; I may have missed some since a few students were already done and had their pieces of the looms already. Maybe a few kids can spot theirs!
