Mosaic Homes

Last week, first grade students created a fantasy home, they drew windows, doors, and a unique roof, they then cut their homes into squares and rectangles to create a mosaic style work of art.  They cut 4 - 6 strips and glued them back together with a small amount of space around the tiles they cut.

Clay Slab Tiles

Fourth Grade planned and created time machine tiles. (Tiles that represent themselves as 4th graders) 

Ideally students can look back on these, years in the future and it will remind them of all their favorite things.  Students had to include the date, first name, age, and 4 things that they enjoy.

First students planned their work on paper...

The following class period was all about clay.  Using clay tools, students made a relief style tile (scratching into the clay)
