Basketry at West Point Grey Academy

5/7/2010

0 Comments

 
On Wednesday I took the day off from Kates to teach a basketry workshop with Ana at West Point Grey Academy for their annual Arts Week.  We had a lot of fun and were really impressed with how fast the grade 6ers picked up the technique; many of them even finished baskets within the 2 hour workshop.  I was so impressed by their determination as they struggled through the beginning of the basket (the hardest part) and quickly became more independent and confident with the technique.  We had three classes of about 25 kids each, so by the last class we were really efficient teachers.
