A Broad Collar

Have the students make their own Egyptian broad-collar necklaces (see Wah's jewelry). Cut large half-circles out of oaktag or construction paper, then ask the students to create their own repeating designs and use their favorite colors. This could be a collage activity. When completed, the collars can be strung and worn.
