Dream Catchers

The 2nd grade is in the midst of learning all about Native Americans. To enhance their learning I did this fun project with them. I explained what dream catchers were and how they were made. Additionally, I explained to them how Native Americans drew pictographs that gave details about their everyday life. Students were asked to draw pictographs around their dream catcher. Sorry it is hard to make them out! To make these beauties all you need is a paper plate, scissors, a hole punch, yarn, tape, and some craft feathers from Wal-Mart. It's an easy, fun project to try yourself at home.
