Description

We are requesting a class set of looms and to replace old looms in order for all 4th grade students to learn how to weave. We are also requesting yarn for students to weave with.

Benefits of Program
  1. Calming and Therapeutic to aide social emotional needs/self regulation tool
  2. Engaging way to incorporate art within our classrooms
  3. Directly connects with our Social Studies Unit on the California Indigenous Tribes
  4. Helps students develop fine motor skills
Success of Program

Mrs. Scoville's class and Mrs. Burau's previous class had access to a class set of looms. Students demonstrated growth in all 5 of the above areas. In past years, the looms have been used in other grades at Tahoe Lake Elementary before landed in 4th grade. 

Implementation

We hope to provide all 4th grade students with access to using a loom throughout the school year.

Yes absolutely.

The looms have withheld many years of use at Tahoe Lake Elementary. This grant will be used to replace any broken ones, buy a new class set and provide more yarn for students to weave.
