Fun with clay

This was a lesson in observational art using clay. It was extremely successful and enormously fun. We used air drying clay. Each child made a pinch pot to start just to get them used to the feel of clay and to play a bit with the way it moulds together.

Then, each child had to find a flower in the garden that he or she loved. We looked at the paetal shape and form. They then set to work build and moulding their flower. These where what they came up with.Simply delightful!!
