In Studio Art 7th & 8th graders have been working on a couple of projects about our community and one is a painting or drawing that's a personal map inspired by maps you might find at the beginning of a story book. Students had a choice of medium and could make the map in any style they chose.
Students have also just completed a sculpture. You will see here the varied subject matter and use of recycled materials. This was a lengthy process, with students first trying out several sculpture techniques as they worked on smaller 3-D pieces, then conceiving an idea and making a plan about how to create their larger sculpture using a variety of materials available to them.
