First graders learned to manipulate clay into a coiled snake. They learned they must work quickly and continue to work the clay or it will dry out. We used air-dry clay for this project. The next time they came to art, we painted the snakes, discussing patterns they have seen on snakes. This was probably their favorite project this year. :)About Me
- Sara
- My name is Sara and I am an art teacher at a small elementary school in the Sunshine State. I teach Kindergarten through fifth grade students. I believe arts education is an integral part of a child's success in school and in life. Students take home more than projects they've completed. They come home with confidence, passion, curiosity, and most importantly, "life".
