For
the second day of making collages, Pre K looked at some kente
cloths and learned how these are
fabrics weaved together and originally worn by royalty in Africa. We used similar patterns and shapes to make
our own kente cloths, inspired by similar colors as well as geometric patterns and shapes
used in theirs. We continued to practice
arranging our shapes by overlapping,
spreading far apart, and touching,
to create an interesting design.
The last step, was gluing
them down to
make them stick!
