Cyclops Monster Weaving
These turned out great, though they do take awhile to complete. First, students create a circular weaving on white cardboard for the loom. These will become the eye of their cyclops creature. Once the weaving is done, they can create the cyclops. We talked about texture, to give the cyclops creature lots of detail. Some classes painted their creatures with basic colors (I limited it to 3 colors per creature), and then added oil pastel on top for the texture/details. Some classes used oil pastel for the whole creature. Really fun!
Clay Pinch Pot Animals
Basic pinch pots, with added parts to make fun animals! These are before they were painted.
