We worked on some figure sculptures last Friday.  Students learned how to shape pipe cleaners into a stick figure body and then give it shape and texture by adding tin foil.  Their task was to create an action figure that showed movement.  They chose to make figures that were surfers, skateboarders, cheerleaders, superheroes, football players, soccer players, basketball players, etc…  This week we wrote about the sculptures in our journals and practiced drawing figures in motion on paper.
