4th Gr Loom Weaving

Students learned about the history of weaving and what kinds of uses ancient people had for woven fabrics. Students looked at my portfolio of woven fabrics and I explained the job of a textile designer. They looked at ancient fabrics from the Incas in South America and fabrics woven by modern artists such as Sheila Hicks.

                  Students learned what a loom is and how to wind a warp.
