These paper plate necklaces were made by grade one students who were learning about Africa. For centuries, beaded jewellery has been a mark of beauty and prosperity among the Maasai tribes of Eastern Africa.
The idea for this lesson came from Mrs Brown's Art Class. Students cut out the centre circle from a paper plate and used this spare piece to cut a rectangular piece which was stapled to the bottom of the necklace piece. Students viewed many photographs of Maasai jewellery then drew and painted designs on their necklaces. Coloured pieces of wool and beads were added to complete.

Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you're using? I'm planning to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

I'm curious to find out what blog platform you have been using? I'm having some minor security issues with my latest blog and I would like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any solutions?
