4th-Graders Learn Native American Symbols Through Woodburning Art

students have showed us how to , how to , how a can break barriers to communicate with nonverbal autistic students and, most recently, how to create woodburning art (also known as pyrography).

Amy Miller's fourth-grade class uses the hot tools very carefully while burning Native American symbols into pieces of wood. She purchased the supplies through an $837 grant and matching funds raised by the school. The woodburning project aligns with the fourth-grade social studies curriculum. Students are also learning how to colorful creations using yarn and beads.
