Having a variety of bead types can make the activity more engaging. Cut the cord into 12-inch long. Begin threading the thirty beads onto the cord. You can create patterns if desired, or you can randomly mix the beads. Leave some space at the ends to tie knots and secure the beads in place. After threading the beads onto the cord, tie a knot at each end to prevent the beads from sliding off. Make sure the knots are secure. 2 < SS aCriteria Excellent (4) Good (3) Satisfactory (2)__| Needs Improvement (1) ‘Bead Quantity |Esaciy 30 beads ae usedin [Close 030 beacs are used’ |Approuimaaly 30 beads are [Fewer than 30 beacs are leach set. ensusng they meet the each set. witymnorvaratons, fused in each sot, but here may |usedn some sets, fading to Ispecties quanay requvement.
