Clay Box Project

Dear Grade Eight Artists,

I know how much you all were looking forward to working with clay this Thursday. I finally received all the tools we need to do our BOX PROJECT and the only thing missing was you. I must admit, I was looking forward to this day as clay is one of my favorite units to teach.

During our last class I had assigned that you come up 4 shape idea you’d like to make for your box. I decided to turn this into a more detailed assignment for our distance learning days. I have revised the assignment as to include 3D design, color, in addition to shape.

You will now draw THREE ideas (each on a separate sheet of paper).
Each paper will have: (SEE EXAMPLE)
a. Your name
b. Box shape without design
c. Top of the box shape with design and color
d. Side view of box and side with color

Materials: white copy paper, pencil, pen, color (you can use either markers, crayons, color pencils)

This project is due upon returning to school.

REMINDER: NO CIRCLES, SQUARES, OVALS, TRIANGLES BOXES.

Email me if you have any questions
