The First Strawberries, the perfect lesson for Spring!
This Native American project is a great activity to welcome SPRING! The inspiration for this lesson comes from a book by Joseph Bruchac: The First Strawberries. This is a Cherokee story that teaches us the importance of forgiveness. Students will create a Strawberry relief sculpture combined with painting techniques.
Included are:
- comprehension questions for the story (book not included)
- step by step procedures to create a strawberry plant with clay
- discussion questions to inspire painting
- a student reflection
- links to strawberry coloring sheets to print
- art standard checklist
Students will love the simple technique and method they can use to create the unique textures of the strawberry!
