The students snipped the paper to create a fringe. If you have more time and want to elaborate on this project, a fringe made from snipped yarn would also be cool. Using oil pastels, kids drew lines across the poncho, making some plain and others decorative. Time for the paints. I kept pre-mixed tempera paint in pint sized plastic containers with lids.
I set various colors on the table. For many kids, painting the poncho with the actual poncho in mind was rare. Most kids experimented with mixing, spreading and reveled in the joys of painting. For first grade, this is exactly what is expected. Older kids can be more refined. Although some kids indeed painted stripes and decorations with serious consideration. For the kids who finished the painting, we stapled yarn at the neckline for a tie.
When I see these kids next week, I might have them outline the stripes with a black oil pastel and give them an opportunity to add a string closure. The process was so much fun and the art room was awash in color. Want another lesson idea for your Mexican unit? Your email address will not be published. Leave a comment.

A few fluorescent colors got in there …. I added white to them so they could stand up to the colored paper. These are wonderful!! What a great project. You might see this from my classroom in the future. Thanks so much for sharing! I love this lesson, and the paper fruit lesson too!
The sides of the hat are slightly upturned, and they are usually made of animal skin, sporting a thin band around the base [15]. These are the type of hats that would have been worn by cowboys in old Westerns, and are still worn by Mexican cowboys to this date. However, unfortunately the sombrero has come to be associated with negative Mexican stereotypes.
They are often sold as cheap souvenirs for tourists and novelty items; a piece of Mexico for you to take away and keep.
This can detract from the significance of the sombrero, and turn it into something comical and trivial. It is important that the sombrero is seen as more than just a souvenir or a fancy dress item, and is recognised for its rich history and significance in Mexican culture, as well as its practicality and functionality, thereby honouring the original roots of the hat.
