SCULPTING WITH CLAY

This week we used real clay to make sculptures. First, the kids explored the soft and cool material. It's a little bit more difficult at first to work with than the dough we usually work with because it does need a bit more strength in the hands and arms, but it's a wonderful material to work with. Then I brought out some materials to decorate the clay and the creativity starts flowing!








Emma and Shira are exchanging thoughts about their art.



Finally, the kids asked to draw on the bases of their sculptures to further decorate their creations.
It was a very exciting session full of diverse materials and use of techniques.
