Advisory/ We have a new student! Meet Daniel. Our advisory has welcomed him and has shown themselves to be great helpers getting Daniel to his classes this week. I’m so proud of them:) Also this friday was a Pink Out day. Some of our friends showed their pink.
6th Grade finish glazing their houses and warmups and they are going into the kiln. We also worked on some Colonial slip trailing techniques and applied them to cookie cutter clay pieces. And finally this week we went back to work on heraldry. Students took their rough draft and traced onto good paper using the light boxes. Then they traced out with a sharpie and started color with color pencils. Next up, calligraphy!
7th Grade/ Food sculptures are mostly out of the kiln and we are all back to working on printmaking projects, sugar skulls. Students have completed their designs and are working on transferring them to a lino plate and cutting out their designs. Next week we will start printing!
8th Grade Sculpture are finishing up choice projects. I have shown the clay projects getting loaded into the kiln and students were also completing the found object projects. Everyone is back to wire now. Here’s a photo of the designs/colors going on the armatures. By next week you should probably start to recognize what famous artist they chose.
