I remember I used to love art class. We would make the most civrtaee things and I loved them. Here are some of my favorites:*Pinch Pots. We had clay and molded the shape of a ball. We pinched our thumb in the middle and molded it untill it was the shape of a bowl. After it dried, the next week we would paint it and get it back on the third week.*Collage. We got a bunch of magazines and cut out things we liked. We glued them on the page and the page would be filled!I suggest getting the Do it yourself craft book written by Anna Burgess. It has like 100 different fun crafts to do. Here are some:A seedy can-Ask the students to each bring an empty can.You cut paper and glue the paper to the can covering it. Glue kinds of seeds and shells to the cup and let it dry. You will have a cup to hold pens and pencils!And we made place mats! We would have one long string of one color. There would be this tray thing with edges on it. We would wrap it around. the carboard untill on one side it equaled 13 strings. Next we had a long needle with one color We went under the string, over the string, under the string, ect in a pattern untill the piece of another color thread ran out. then we just started in the placce we left off with another color. After your done some of it. push it to one side. It should get smaller. At the very end, you cut the strings on the other side and you will have a place mat.Look up paper mache on google. It’s interesting.Good luck!
