First, we looked at many different sculptures and discussed the difference between 2-Dimensional art and 3-Dimensional sculpture. Sculpture asks an artist to consider all sides and angles of their work.

Next, we learned that sculptures can be representational or non-representational. Students have since been using these art terms to describe other things we are looking at in class. It is great!

| Non-representational by 6th graders |
At last we got to the art making itself, and students were given the challenge of creating a representational OR a non-representational sculpture using only brown paper (crumple or twist), string, cardboard from cereal boxes and tape.
The results were quite diverse.
