African Projects

This past week has been full of all things Africa. We have been learning all about their culture and how it is different than ours. They were really excited about their jewelry and their musical instruments. Since that's what they were excited about we made necklaces and drums this week! We also finished our map of Africa and now it just needs some labels.


 We began creating necklaces this past week. After doing some research we learned that they use a lot of colorful beads to create their jewelry. We used beads as well as colorful packing peanuts to create our necklaces. 





 Using Styrofoam cups we glued 2 cups together and taped the top to create a drum. Then the students were able to decorate their African drums. 








We had a great week getting more of our African study done! Check back next week to see what we are learning and creating! Enjoy your week!
