Around the World Class goes to Eygpt…

During our Around the World art class on Monday, we started off by creating our own alphabet similar to the hieroglyphics from Eygpt.

Once we were finished with our alphabet, we started to work on our sarcophagus.   To make our sarcophagus, we used cardboard and tin foil. We used our secret alphabet to write messages.  Then we painted patterens on the sarcophagus to make it beautiful and more interesting.   After the paint was dry we drew background pictures of Eygpt.  Naomi had just studied Eygpt, so her drawing includes the Nile River.

Monsters and Creatures Class with Sam and Charlie!

Last Wednesday, Sam and Charlie used their FREE Coupon for a Monsters and Creatures class. They really got into creating many arms, legs, and other body parts to their creatures. Instead of just printing the scratchfoam in a rectangle format, we cut out each body part, used a brayer to put in the ink and with the heel of our hand pressed the paper onto the foam. They turned out great!
