Dream Catcher Art Lesson

 I tried this GREAT Dream Catcher art Lesson I saw on: http://elementaryartfun.blogspot.com/2016/03/dream-catchers.html Thank you to the Smart Art Class Blog for the inspiration! I had to share the results I got with my students on this project. We didn't have compasses so students used various sized circles to trace and make their circles. We traced with sharpie, colored in chosen areas with construction paper crayons and then dripped liquid watercolor over a wet paper. Some students chose to sprinkle salt for the additional effect it creates.

Second graders also studied Native American art and geometric quilt designs. We also created some Native American drums. This was a challenging but fun project!
