My students love to be hands on. Clay provides a wonderful experience for students to develop their sensory, fine motor, and problem-solving skills. It can be challenging to create 3D artwork with limited supplies, so the clay will be a wonderful medium to introduce to students. They will be given time to explore with the clay, as well as learn certain clay techniques, ending with a final project. The empty daubers will be filled with the India Ink and used as paint markers to help support students' 2D work. Students will be able to complete numerous artworks with this tool. While traditional markers quickly dry out, these will provide endless ink and will be much more user-friendly.
These new art materials will create wonderful learning opportunities for my students that they would otherwise not be able to experience.
