Strip Sculptures

We had a great first week of school, and we finished off the week on Friday afternoon by making strip sculptures. First, we learned that a sculpture is a piece of artwork that takes up space instead of being flat. Then, we learned how to use paper strips and glue to make lots of shapes.
We had to share strips with a partner, and we could make our sculptures any way we wanted.

We had to be very patient while we waited for the glue to dry.


Our hands got kind of sticky from the glue, and so did our papers, but fortunately, our hands can be washed, and the glue dries clear.

What a good way to spend the last part of the day! It's fun to be creative!

Stop in and see all of our sculptures on display outside of our classroom!
