This is a demonstration for the mum's of kindergarten. The parents at my school are predominantly Portuguese speaking. This was created as a reference, these scarves were made for our Christmas bazaar.
For the school's December bazaar each class needs to create something that will be sold. All profits are donated to a charity chosen by the IB CAS students. I thought that kindergarten could create scarves. We live in Brazil, so the December holiday season is hot although a lot of our families travel to colder climate.

Architecture grade 2

Students are asked to fill out this form first in a constructivist manner. After the students have spent time together developing answers the whole class participates in completing this task.
