Help me give my students an experience of what weaving wool in the colonial days was like. My students love these hands-on experiences to help them connect to our rich history.

My Project
Teaching American history has been such a great experience. For 8 years now, I have been bringing back historical moments in the classroom. My students love to use hands-on materials to experience real-life history. Using a loom during the colonial days was something they studied. However, they only had 2 looms to use and not everyone got to make something. This will give them all an opportunity to create something. These looms will be used for colonial days in my classroom. This resource will be a tremendous help.
