Boston Terrier in Clay

Click here for:  Video
My students love to use clay, and one of their favorite subjects is dogs. This is a good first project for clay dogs - just the head of a boston terrier. When they are finished baking I glue a magnet on the back to display on the side of the fridge.Warning - if they fall they will break, so don't put it on the refrigerator door, which slams a lot! You can tell by looking at the results of these that the kindergartners had a little trouble constructing the snout, but still good practice in spatial reasoning!

However, by the time they are in second grade, students will show great improvement in their construction understanding.
