For one of our sculpture projects, we focused on using recycled items! Recycling, re-using and reducing is something we all need to be more aware of and practice everyday! Throughout the years at WMS, I have collected items in a box I call, 'Junk to make stuff out of' (see below). This box has tons of random stuff that can be made into lots of different stuff! You just have to use your imagination and some hard work. The first day of our project, we created posters that had to have visual and/or written explanations of the 'why, how and where' we reduce, reuse and recycle. Why is it so important?? Students created some beautiful posters that ended up being hung in the hallway. After the posters, students were then able to pick whether or not they wanted to work independently or as a group and then they got started! They were able to grab a recycled grocery bag and go to my 'Recycle Shop' where EVERYTHING IS FREE!! Best kind of shopping :) Then the ideas started flowing and 'trash' items were turned into beautiful and wonderful things! See below for pictures of the process... ...and now for the finished products!!! They are SO AMAZING!!!!!

Start bringing in found and recycled materials for our sculptures!
I can't wait to see what everyone is going to make! Below are the drawings that included all of the 7 Elements of Art: Line, Shape, Form, Texture, Value, Space, and Color.
Some were chosen to be laminated and hung up in the front office! Make sure to check them out if you are up there! |
