My Project
This project will allow my students to work in smaller groups by allowing them to have a hat press machine to use and create 3 hat projects. This will allow my students to create art with less wait time and reinforce socialization skills with group members.
Small group instruction helps students receive additional help by collaborating on the art projects with their peers.
Discussion and critical thinking will promote students' imagination to create designs and then print them on hats. Students will engage in socialization skills by speaking to one another through the hat making process.
