After the home classroom lesson of Ancient Greece, we got inspired to embark on a creative adventure in the Art room. We discussed Ancient Greek pottery techniques, styles, and historical context. Then, each student let their imagination run wild, designing their own unique pots. Instead of the usual clay, we decided to switch things up and use recycled cardboard and the magical technique of paper mache. Some opted for pure cardboard creativity, while others went for a round shape using balloons and a layer of paper mache. Here you can see a glimpse of the first two lessons.

In one our most recent projects, we delved into the fascinating world of musical instruments, collaborating closely with our music teacher. Together, we explored the history of our G7s favorite instruments. We engaged in thoughtful discussions, gathered recyclable materials such as cardboard, paper, cork, and plaster among others. With these materials, we rolled up our sleeves and set out to craft our favorite instruments. From unique flutes, to violins, to groovy drums, to a real size bass!!! each creation showcased individual style and innovation. The application of plaster added that final touch of finesse to our artistic endeavors.
Finally we got our hands into plaster!! We are pretty excited with all the possibilities that it has to offer! This is just a first test, stay tuned for more coming soon!
