My Project

In our enrichment classroom, fuse beads will be used to create amazing artworks by allowing students to design and assemble intricate patterns and images. Students will use these colorful beads to build designs on pegboards, which are then fused together with heat to form permanent, vibrant creations.

This project not only helps them practice precision and patience but also encourages creativity as they experiment with various patterns and color combinations.

By working with fuse beads, students will develop a greater understanding of geometric design and enhance their fine motor skills while producing unique, visually striking pieces of art.
