Rainsticks at School 9

At School 9 WP Art Professor-in-Residence Simone Sandler worked with first grade students and their teacher Ms. Doud to create a class using in Google Classroom in art/science lesson exploring Native American rain sticks and their significance. Rainsticks are also common in South America.

After learning about rainsticks in class, they used simple materials from home: recycled cardboard tubes, pencils, paint and rice/beans inside the tubes to create a beautiful rain sound.

Parents uploaded the photos of the finished lesson in attractive digital frames. Some examples are shown below.
