High Fives

Lesson Objective: SWBAT apply their understanding of shape and texture into making a 3D creation of their hand using paper, glue, and yarn.

Essential Skill to be Mastered: Manipulating material to create their hand using paper, yarn and glue.

I Can Statement: I can create my own hand on paper using yarn and glue.

Teaching Strategy: Day 1 - To start this project I talk with the students about texture and have them find different items in the room that have texture and then I have them find items that look like they have a texture. I then show the example of the finished product, give out paper and have students trace their own hands, after which I model easier techniques for gluing the yarn and show how close together each strand should be. Days 2-5 - Use guided practice to make sure students are gluing yarn strand close together and to ensure they are following the rest of the guidelines.
