Yarn Flowers Lesson



I found a fun activity for the students to work on for spring! We have an extensive amount of colored embroidery thread and yarn that would be great for making pom-pom yarn flowers. It is an easy and fun activity that the students will enjoy. 



The first step is to losely wrap a significant amount of yarn
around your fingers. Then carefully slip the yarn
off and place on top of a 6 inch piece of yarn.

Next, tie the 6inch piece of yarn tightly around
your bundle and knot. Then, cut through
 the loops to make the pom-pom.

The final step is to attach the pom pom

 to a stick or pipe cleaner.

Art Show

This week we are preparing for the upcoming art show at HUB-BUB! I haven't had much of a chance to work with the kids, as I have been working more on administrative side, helping Angie get the show organized. I need to make sure that every piece of work that is entered in the show has the correct paper work and contact information sheet with it. This is so we can get the work back to the students as soon as the show it over! I also need to frame and/or mat each piece, as well as make display cards for each piece. The display cards will have the student's name, the student's age, the title of their work, and what cite they visit (the Chapman Center, Boiling Springs, TK Gregg, or Carver). This will help viewers see the range of students we get to work with! The opening reception will be Tuesday April 26th from 5-7! I hope to see a great turnout (I will post pictures the day after!)
