Weaving.
Counts, Rubynelle
Developed at The Mountain School (Lookout Mountain, Georgia), a project funded under Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, 1974-75, this curriculum guide for an interdisciplinary minicourse in weaving provides for integration of environmental and career education goals with those in academic areas. Introductory material indicates that a teacher interested but not necessarily experienced in the weaving craft can effectively direct the minicourse and that the program can be enriched by a tour of a textile manufacturing plant and using local weavers, spinners, and vegetable-dyers as teaching assistants at the school or for special activities in artists' studios. The guide contains (1) course concepts (in language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, art, and vocational training), (2) list of objectives, (3) student activities, (4) procedures and physical facilities needed, (5) directions for 20 student activities, (6) weaving vocabulary glossary, (7) a list of weaving-related job opportunities, and (8) a list of suggested resources (books, magazines, films, etc.).
