Dreamcatcher Ornament

A dreamcatcher ornament with red and blue feathers and beads, accompanied by a note card at the bottom.

The Governor’s Mansion in Madison sent us a call for ornaments made by 4th graders based on a book.  These ornaments will be hung on a large Christmas tree in the mansion.  Only one per classroom could be submitted.  As a group, several of the students made this dream catcher.  The 3/4s read the book Time of the Eagle, by Stephanie Golightly Lowden and made a creative dream catcher to represent the book.  It is a great tie-in to their language arts/social studies curriculum and also to our school, EAGLE School.  I think it turned out gorgeous!  Both of my classes are working on a dream catcher for this project, but the other class isn’t finished yet.
