i was just looking in prairie's handwork bag from school and found this floating around the bottom. i knew she had started it but had no idea she had finished it. i'm hoping it will make its way to my work space! they are now making pencil cases and i see that has been brought home in the hope that mumsie will do a few crosses to move the project along. its bigger and a little daunting, to get get through it by christmas time (she wants to give it to tommy - he gave her the one he made at this age for christmas!)
My daughter made a similar one in 4th grade. It has beautiful celtic knotwork embroidered on it. She's now on to making a doll. My 3rd grader is crocheting--is that what your 3rd grade does?

My daughter is 8 and she doesn't do anything like this - it makes me so sad. She would draw all day long though, so at least there is some kind of crafty flair in there!!!
