The students will also become more familiar with some common insects. This activity will take 25-30 minutes to complete. Students can create a necklace with the lettered beads and then wear the necklace for the rest of the week as a way for the teachers and fellow students to identify them. Students will then take their supplies and either sitting at a table or sitting on the floor, they can begin threading their beads When threading the beads, the students should first tie a knot at one end of their string.
Students can then begin adding the beads.
Students may wish to put knots on either side of the beads that they thread, in order to keep the beads in place. Students should be at liberty to make their necklace in any way they wish to. When students are done adding beads, a knot should be made at the tail end of their necklace. In place of a knot, students may close the necklace by making a clasp using a looped shaped knot and a bead on the opposite end of the line. Once the students are done with creating the necklace they can then share it with the group.
