Help me give my students the experience of learning how to create with their own hands and gain understanding of how items were made.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Grate's classroom raised $492
This project is fully funded
My Project
After reading 'Woven of World', I hope the students will gain an understanding of the important role of weaving and making items by hand. By creating something with their own hands, they will be able to link the hard work they put into making their creation with the hard work that was put into the creations of past items. This activity will provide insight into textiles and the role that it plays locally as well as worldwide.
By creating these items, they will be able to pass them on to others as a gift or keep them as a keepsake of time they learned something new and how important it was to learn this and other skills from a cultural aspect as well as economic.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
