It was the day before our long Thanksgiving break and I wanted to do lessons that were going to keep the students attention and have fun because lets be honest no one wants to focus the day before break. Our school had to teach a lesson on Tolerance. I was inspired by the art work I saw on we heart art: Circle Painting and this video The Art of Weaving Faiths.
The older groups worked together to create their mural circle paintings; working on cooperation and tolerance for one another.
The younger students worked on their own circle for classroom management reasons. The circles will be connected in the display.
The kids had a blast and we ALL came out enjoying the activity and day! I will post more pictures of how it will be displayed in the hallways.
