WHO is making owls?

In first grade, students learn about symmetry (if something is folded in half, it's the same on both sides.) 
We learn how to draw an owl, making sure to have big eyes, a small beak, wings, and even details like feathers.
After we draw, we sculpt!  Students get a ball of clay, make a ball, then flatten it like a pancake. 
Next, they make eyes, a beak, wings, and other details they might see on this mysterious creature!
The coloring is left to their imagination!

Here are some of our 1st grade student's clay owls!
