Summer Camp - Celebrating World Cultures

This camp explored social sciences, geography, and history through clay.  Each day, I took students to a different continent and time period.  One day, we looked at ancient Greece and Rome before creating amphora wall hangings.  Another day, I showed examples of Islamic art; then we worked on pattern and created tile boxes.

The group project was inspired by historic adobe villages of North America.  Students explored the pueblo lifestyle by re-creating it in clay.  They worked together to combine all of the elements of a village and created a truly fantastic project.
