HOW THE WORLD WORKS!
In PYP 2 we have been learning about production. Students have been investigating all kinds of natural resources and how they are changed to produce the items we use.
Most recently, we have been learning about how fabric is made.
Most recently, we have been learning about how fabric is made.
We started by investigating how cotton is produced, from seed to fabric. We planted some cotton seeds to see more of the process.
To understand weaving, we used paper to show how the threads fit together to make cloth.
We then used yarn to weave our own decorations, we worked hard a created a great finished product!This process really showed how much transformation materials go through before they are the products we recognise. Our work is in the running for art of the month!
Finally, we created string "paintings" with our leftover string. This allowed for deconstructing of the string to see its component parts and even a little bit of creative recycling!
