Guatemalan Quetzal Birds

Georgetown’s third grade artists finished up their study of Mexico and South America with an exciting mixed-media project.  They began by learning about the Ojo de Dios weavings found in Mexico, and created their own Ojo weaving.  Once they got the hang of weaving their Ojo’s, the begged to make more – they have been promised another weaving session very soon!

The Ojo weavings were added to the top of the 3rd grader’s beautiful drawings of a Guatemalan Quetzal bird.  The brightly colored Quetzal is the national bird of Guatemala and lives in the cloud forests of Central America.  Third graders worked hard to carefully shade and color their quetzals – aren’t their finished pieces wonderful?
