We had taken a break from SOTW since we changed gears last year and began the great lessons. But D always asks for SOTW as she loves the stories and the activities! Here are some of what we did when we covered Ancient China and Ancient Africa.
Chinese Ming Bowl
 |
| Here D is painting her Chinese Ming Bowl. She made it using air dry clay and a kitchen bowl for mould. |
 |
| The finished bowl! |
African Paper Beads Necklace
 |
| Here D is tracing and cutting triangles on the back of a scrapbook paper for her beads. We should have used a smaller triangle though! |
 |
| The paper triangle rolled up and glued. |
 |
| All threaded and ready to be worn! |
African Hand Art
We do a lot of henna based mehendi at home, so we decided to do the hand art on paper and make a garland instead.
 |
| The hands we traced using construction paper. |
 |
| We used sharpies to make the designs. |
Nice activities! I especially love the Chinese Ming Bowl.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
FUN FUN FUN! My son would love these activities! We use Mystery of History and he loves that too - he'd do both SOTW and MOH if we had time ;) So shhh don't tell him about SOTW ;)
ReplyDeleteWow! Are the art projects part of SOTW, or are you just choosing your own to go with it?
ReplyDeleteThe activities are suggested SOtW. Thanks for stopping by!
