Reel 3 of 3. I went to Madison's @printandresist Zinefest and found some awesome zines and handmade foldout booklets to share with my students. I'm going to do a lesson on making your own zines with my 4th/5th grade classes. I have 3 videos to share with you of the zines I picked up. Stay tuned! They are really cool. #elementaryartteacher #elementaryart #iteachart #artteachersofinstagram #artteacherlife #artteachersofigReel #2 of 3.

Circular Weaving
