The Sculpture Challenge continues...

Many 2nd graders have already started gluing their paper mache` projects after completing strong armatures made from cardboard scraps, newspaper, boxes, and masking tape. I am amazed at the innovation and designs many of these students developed with their own abilities! Check out some of the amazing examples below! See the original lesson explanations here and here.

Paper Mache` Animals (continued)

We are very near the end of the school year and I always get a little nervous as to whether or not we will finish this project, no matter how early I start it. Many second grade classes have as little as five days of art left with the last day reserved for fun Rainbow club day activities.

Many students are finished with the final touches, including eyes, ears, and tails and have their animals on display in the 2nd grade reading nook. Here are some of the amazing projects completed so far. To find out more about this fun, yet messy, project look at my previous posts here and here.
