The first week of class presentations, we had two students give a group presentation. Their lesson was on a 1st grade setting and we created clay beads to make a necklace. They gave us each a ball of clay so that we could learn how to knead the clay. Next, we took a little piece from the ball of clay and made bead-like pieces by wrapping it around a small skewer, we did this to make an opening for the beads to go on the string. The teachers instructed us that we had to make at least five beads and have 3 different colors and at least one had to have a design on it.
As an extension activity, they could use it in science to make the periodic table by making atoms and connecting them together to make each element. They would color each circle to make it represent the atom. For example, for H2O they would color two circles blue for hydrogen and one for oxygen and they can connect them together with tooth picks.
