Basketry Art

As a culmination to learning about California Indians and their customs my students loved creating these colorful baskets.

This online resource is great for researching about the various basketry designs and uses.

California Dreamin: California Regions

I just love this California Region song

What a perfect way to learn about the central valley, mountains, coast and desert regions of the Golden State.

Even Harley loves cruisin' California!

A good car ride makes a dog's life.

California Regions

This week my class wrapped up our learning of the four main regions of California by making these bean maps.  My grade level does these every year. We used rice, pinto/kidney beans, split peas, and popcorn kernels to represent the coast, mountain, central valley and desert areas.
