Texture Beye Texture!

Post Contributed by Jocelyne Adkins, Program Director/Educator

On Wednesday following winter break, we prowled the school's hallways looking for textures. There were many to be found and I was impressed by how invested the students were in their quest to find and record them! Stocked with paper and crayons (without their wrappers to rub most efficiently), most students recorded 10 pages of textures each, some with multiple textures per page.

Back in the classroom, students were asked to look closely at their textures/rubbings to see if a character, place or story emerged from them. With clues from their rubbings, students cut out elements and collaged them to create a seascape, the beach, a naturescape, a picnic, a video game, dancing hearts etc. We invite you to take a peek below:
