The arts for grades five and six, in my opinion, are vey fun. I chose to do these arts because when I walk down the street, I see kids, around eleven or twelve, walking around with a bunch of keychaind dangling from their backpack. As for the puppets, I just thought, hey, why not? It fits the age group so I might as well! When it comes to art, the most important thing I learned is to have fun. So go ahed, Have fun!
Keychains-

The materials:
  • Leather cord
  • Beads

    • Instructions:
    Fold leather cord in half and tie a knot where the ends meet, then put the two tied ends throuh the loop to attach to keychain. Then, if you want, tie a knot for decoration. Then string beads onto cord. When you are happy with your design, tie a knot at the end to prevent the beads from falling off. Last but not least, take your keys and attach your new keychain to them/it.
