3rd, 4th, & 5th Grade Clay

3rd - 5th Graders enjoyed creating their clay sculptures. Third grade were instructed to make clay creatures. Their inspiration was monsters. Fourth grade were instructed to make clay vessels and were encouraged to use the aboriginal dot painting techniques with their glazes. Fifth grade were instructed to make clay animals. They had various examples as inspiration. The sculptures and pottery turned out amazing!!

Feet in the Sand

Kindergarteners painted their water and sand with tempera paint one week. The next week they did footprints with brown tempera paint.

Sea Creatures

1st graders drew a sea creature with pencil, outlined with a black crayon, and painted with liquid watercolor.
