Eric Carle
Students were read the book the “Walter the Baker” by Eric Carle. The students also watched a video on how Eric Carle texturized the paper he used for his collages. Then students made their own texturized paper. Lastly, students made animal collages out of the texturized papers and placed them within the appropriate environment. |
Recreation of Vincent Van Gogh |
Recreating Masterpiece Artworks
Students used the elements of art and principles of design to effectively “recreate” a master art work of their choice. A variety of mediums were used such as colored pencils, water color, tempera paint, oil pastels and crayons. |
Coil Pots |
Ceramics
Students made a small circular slab for the base of their coil pot. Students learned how to make coils and assemble the coils through a process known as “scoring” in order to build up the walls of the pot. Students were given the option to keep the walls of the pot “as is” with visible coils or smooth the walls of the pot with the ceramic tools. Lastly, the students glazed their coil pots with an under glaze and a clear glaze. |
