A Sneak-Peek at the 6th Graders' Comayagua Float!

There have been a lot of floats "floating" around my room this week! (OK, two bad puns in two posts, I apologize! :)

Anyway, I just wanted to share a small element of the 6th Graders' float with you...a VERY kind and generous parent provided us with some colored wood shavings which are traditionally used in the creation of beautiful "rugs" in religious motifs...

The 6th Grade class was kindly given permission to work on their float in Mr. Taylor's art class, and we spent a happy Tuesday afternoon using the wood shavings to make our own Honduran-inspired "rugs"...

Take a look:

We are really looking forward to showing these off during our Dia de la Independencia celebration on Friday!
