Kinders and Cardboard

Last week kindergarten artists thought about the differences between 2D flat art and 3D sculptural art.  Students learned about cardboard and some basic attachments and were given the challenge to make their sculpture stand up on it's own.  They excitement in discovering ways to create with cardboard, wire, beads and paper strips was energizing!  After adding color with paint sticks, sculptures went home for display or to become a new toy to take apart and build again.  I'm looking forward to hearing from kids if they played with their creations.  We also started singing Hickory Dickory Dock to connect with music and the classroom.  Below are some pictures of problem solving in action.
