Bulletin Board / Cathy Hicks - New Leaf and New Year

How cool is this for a January bulletin board? Lower School Art Teacher, Cathy Hicks has perfected this art lesson. See the links below for more details.

UPDATE These were just too cool not to share on the blog. Cathy, lower school art teacher, worked with 4th grade on a cross curricular unit that involved the study of leaves for the state of Florida. This is the 3rd year they have created this cross curricular art lesson. The kids study the lesson in class. Went to art and were able to create the leaves in clay using white low fire clay and Stroke n Coat glazes. The leaves were bone dry and place in the kiln at 04 to bisque on a slow  firing as to not have them crack. Then glazed and placed back in the kiln at 06 for a fast firing to have the completed look in the photos you see in the post.  





















Turning over a New Leaf in this New Year, How about you?
