Sculptures!

The Paper Towers were built by 5th graders in a lesson where they learned about the element of form. They had to work together in teams to build the highest tower.This got them thinking about effective methods for architecture, viewing art in the round, and the challenges of making 3-D art work. Some classes used hot glue while others used tape. Tape was way more effective but not as aesthetically pleasing. The clay sculptures are 4th grade's work. They learned how art can express an emotion by its subject matter and color. Each student had to validate how they did this with their sculptures.
