Our Kindergartners learned a little about the continent of Africa and the art that is made and worn by the Samburu people in Kenya. They studied the colors and patterns in their necklaces and clothing. We recreate the necklaces by painting patterns on paper plates the once they dried we used colored sharpies to add more patterns on top. Then the real fun began when the students created their own salt dough and used it to make beads. Messy but very fun! To finish the necklaces we poked holes and used wire to weave on beads onto the plates.
