Mrs. Duda’s Fiber Arts class collaborated with Mrs. Rodgers’ third grade class from MTA for a special project! Third grade drew their very own creature for our students to create a real-life stuffed toy! Students were so excited to see how their drawings would turn out and the our Ramblers did such an incredible job bringing them to life. Students delivered their final pieces on Wednesday and joined Mrs. Rodgers’ class to hand out their work. They then helped third grade with an “About Me/Create a Character” sheet for their creature. #Prep #Art #Family 🧵
