Fusion of art, culture, and literature -- it's got it all!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Spindle Whorl: An Activity Book Ages 9-12 (Northwest Coast Indian Discovery Series) (Paperback)
This book works on so many levels! In forty-one pages you get a multi-disciplinary unit of study. A spindle whorl is a tool used by Northwest Coastal people to spin yarn. McNutt spins her own yarn, so to speak, by telling the story of a young girl coming of age who receives a treasured family whorl. Included with the story are a variety of activities that explore the art of spinning. Teachers will find this book especially useful, as it also includes a map, bibliography, detailed research information, and even a sequenced unit lesson design. Students will surely find themselves eager to embrace the tradition of spinning when presented with this informative book that includes its own removable, easy-to-assemble spindle whorl on heavy cardstock. Consider purchasing the other books in this series, The Bentwood Box, The Button Blanket, and The Cedar Plank Mask to complete your collection.
