Go Away Big Green Monster! Collages by Grades K and 1

We read Go Away Big Green Monster by Ed Emberly, and kindergartners and first graders made these magnificent collages inspired by the book..

Clay Picture Frames by Grade 2

Second graders used a variety of materials to stamp textures into their clay to create these frames.  They then painted the dried clay with watercolor, and finished by adding a tiny little original drawing inside the frame.

Fancy Coil Pots by Grade 5

Fifth graders took coil pots to the next level with these intricate and completely unique creations...

Ceramic Leaf Bowls by Grade 4

Fourth graders pressed real leaves into clay to create these fabulous leaf bowls.  Glazing with beautiful fall colors adding a unique final touch.

Clay Necklaces by Grade 1

First graders learned many clay techniques during this lessons.  They molded clay beads, and pressed texture from the soles of their shoes to create the designs on the pendant.  Once dried and painted, they used symmetry and pattern to string the beads onto wire.

Clay Suns, Moons and Fish by Grade K

We read an African myth about why the sun and the moon live in the sky and also why the water remained on the earth, before embarking on these sculptures.  Kindergartners then turned their sculptures into nifty hanging decorations.
