Eco Printing
Posted by Sarah RaggioIn solidarity with the Umpqua Community we are learning about in Indian No More, the Grade 5 students took a break from reading to create some art, using plants and leaves we found in nature. The Native American community in our book demonstrated their love and respect for the natural world they lived in, which inspired us to stop and appreciate the beauty around us. The students created designs on muslin fabric with the plant material and learned about bundle dyeing with an iron mordant. This Master Class was taught by our very own Makerspace teacher, Mr Casey, who has a lot of experience in dyeing. A special thanks to Mr. Casey for the fun collaboration!
