Building with clay, continued

Please view Ms. Leslie's blog next week for a joint conversation about this project and for video feed.



This week in the three-year-old class the children finished up their self-portraits and continued finger-painting outside with Ms. Laura.

In Kindergarten this week we continued our clay unit and the idea of using clay to sculpt and build with.  The children were shown how to make four legs and then asked to build something that would stand on four legs.  The children were also introduced to some tools that they could use to enhance their sculptures.
