This project is all about weaving, colors, and lines. Students are tasked with picking colors that mean something to them to make their projects. For me, I chose yellow to represent joy, white to represent faith, and blue to represent peace. Students can pick whatever colors they would like to use, and they attach a piece of paper on the back with what the colors they chose means to them. The teacher has a great opportunity to discuss the history of weaving and its uses in different cultures too. Furthermore, the teacher can talk about lines as a principle of art.
For an extension activity, students can write more about the colors they chose and why. They can write three different paragraphs, one for each color, to explain what the colors represent to them. They can further this by explaining why the ideas they chose represent them.
