3D Animal Sculptures

Here's a look into what 7th and 8th graders are working on in the art room.  They were challenged to come up with an animal they would like to sculpt and first began with a front and side view sketch.  When sketch is approved, they are ready to begin the construction process.  They are focusing on craftsmanship and the creative process in art standards 1 and 2.  There are great solutions happening as students solve the problem of how to go from a 2D sketch to a 3D sculpture and issues that happen along the way.  This project really gives them the opportunity to use their imaginations and creativity.  I am so excited to see these progress.  Stay tuned....

Pinch Pot Monsters

   The Horrendous Takeover In Room 47 

   The 6th grade class of 2016-2017 is making clay pinch pots into monsters. Mrs.Eden has been working hard trying to keep them looking good and healthy. The class has been working for a week to complete these monsters and you might even see some of them in the art show. Mrs.Eden's expectations are that the students will have good creativity, craftsmanship and neatness. You should come to Hamilton Middle School to see the horrendous monsters.

3D Paper Bag Stars

This is the first post of year, as this year had a bit of crazy start!  Things are now getting back to normal and I'm excited to share what 5th graders have been creating.  They have been creating designs and patterns using line, shape and color to make 9 unique bags to create a 3D star.  When they finish, we will hang them up in the cafeteria.  Please have a look at some of the wonderful artwork by some awesome artists. Enjoy!!
