Arts Update: Be Handy

Seventh and eighth grade students in the “Be Handy” arts elective this term are working on their first major challenge: to tell a story using finger puppets. Working independently or in small groups, students decided on the story they wanted to tell and then created a storyboard and individual character sketches. This week, students began to work on creating their felt finger puppets; hand-sewing, knot-tying, and deciding the stitch to use for a particular effect are key elements for each piece.
