Sculptures in Art

Using different sized wood pieces, the children created their own free standing sculpture.  Susan suggested looking at the sculpture from different angles to make sure the pieces were where they wanted them to be.  Some kids got down on their knees to see the sculpture from underneath, while others very slowly rotated the wood to get a different perspective.  Once the children were satisfied with their wood placement, they could glue down the pieces.  This was easier said than done since the kids had to really think about how to balance some of those bigger pieces.
 Look for these creative sculptures to be part of our art show in February!
