For this craft project we created a yarn bracelet. We created the weaving by picking three different colors and weaving through three straws that were taped together on the end. To create the next color to be incorporated we would tie a little knot to the other color of yarn , so that once it ran out the new color would start. Once we were done weaving we knotted the end and pulled the straws out from the yarn.
Extension Activity: This project could be tied into a Social Studies lesson. We had learned about the Native American culture that weaving originated from, so I would have the students create a mini power point on Native American culture to the class. Native American culture is a wide culture that we have here in South Dakota, so it would really benefit the students.
