This was our final week of our current unit of inquiry. We were working on our summative assessments. The students started off with a research project on an iconic figure of their choice. Everyone made a sculpture of their icon for our classes version of a "wax museum". The sculptures will be on display on Monday for the school to come look at. Everyone worked really hard and the museum is looking really amazing. The sculptures will be sent home on Tuesday and we will start our next unit of inquiry.
The sculptures were made out of salt dough which they really liked working with. If you want to make some at home the recipe is really easy. You mix 2 cups of flour, 1 cup of salt and 1 cup of water. The dough can either be put in the oven on low heat till it gets hard or they can air dry.
Here are some photos of the creative process!
