Greek Vases

Third graders made these awesome Greek vases and columns. We began by looking at many examples of pottery from Ancient Greece. Many of the pictures on the pots and vessels told stories about life in Ancient Greece. They also had beautiful patterns and designs. Third graders made styrofoam prints of their vases and finished their work with a Doric, Ionic, or Corinthian column.

Giraffes!

Second graders loved making these fanciful giraffes! We talked about drawing simple shapes for the head and face and adding a long neck poking into the page. We practiced printmaking to make the leaves surrounding our colorful giraffes!
