During the following class, after the plaster had hardened, the students used brushes to clean away the excess sand to reveal their "fossils"
This site is designed as a place to share the art experiences of the students at Earl Warren Elementary. Each grade level receives four weeks of art instruction thanks to the generosity of the Fremont Presbyterian Church. I am happy to have the opportunity to follow in the creative steps of Judy Kennedy who originated this art program. I hope you enjoy the students art as much as I do.

Second Grade "Fossils"
Sand Casting
After learning about line and shape the second graders were ready to go 3D. They made sand cast forms by making imprints in sand and then filling theim with plaster.
