Kente Cloth

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Young scholars examine colors, patterns, and meanings of the designs in a traditional form of weaving from Ghana called a Kente cloth. They create a replica drawing of a Kente cloth using paper and Crayola Overwriters Markers. Drawings can be duplicates of authentic patterns or may be created using own symbols.
