3rd Grade Egyptian Inspired Relief Symbols about Nature

Egyptian Reliefs
3rd grade artists were inspired by symbols from Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics on tomb walls! They thought of what their favorite part of nature was after listening to a poem about nature and created their own symbols to display that message! Students now know that a symbol does not have to look like the actual thing, but is a picture representing it. We studied Egyptian symbols and guessed their meanings for practice! Students then raised up their nature symbol drawings using glue as a “relief sculpture” effect. We painted these with Metallic paint after watching videos of real metal relief sculptures being CASTED. We then reflected on our process being additive, as it differs from a relief sculpture in Ancient Egypt which would be made by taking away and chiseling or a subtractive process. Artists then chose two colors which represent their meanings and showed emphasis! Students later ‘decoded’ each other’s work like an Egyptologist would and described their own works’ meaning as an ancient Egyptian scribe would. |
3rd Grade Warm and Cool colored Clay Circular Looms and Weavings
3rd Grade students sculpted a circular loom out of a clay slab to create a circular weaving on. Students then glazed their artwork with warm or cool colors and radial designs! Afterwards, students tied a WARP onto the loom which acts a s a backbone for the weaving. They then added the WEFT of the weaving, which is the yarn that has been woven into a circle. Students who used Warm colored looms with warm colored weavings created UNITY in their artwork. Students that used WARM and COOL colors created CONTRAST between the textile they wove and the loom they wove it on.
3rd Grade Favorite Art Material Still Lifes
A still life is an artwork showing objects of the artist’s choice. Students set up their own and tried to create an interesting composition. Drawing a still life gives an artist time to look at what they see, as it stands still for a long period of time while drawing.
In the background of our artworks, students created a watercolor resist that expressed their feelings about ART! We used colors and lines that expressed how we feel when we draw, paint, and create! Students set up their own still lifes using their favorite art materials and created Observational Drawings by looking at the materials to draw what they see in a realistic way! |
3rd Grade Cubist and contemporary Inspired Faces
3rd Grade Poems, Portraits and Painting to Music
Students created three different types of art throughout this unit:
- An acrostic poem using their name and lines about themselves
- An abstract painting to two different types of music> Calm and Upbeat
- A Portrait utilizing correct proportions of the face
Students started by painting to music in their own way , one side of the paper was used for painting to the calm songs, and the other was used for painting to the upbeat, fast songs. This was a day in class when students created without any inhibition.
Students then learned how to draw with correct facial proportions and had a day of practice before drawing in pencil and marker outlines.
Students created a different form of art about themselves utilizing an Acrostic Poem, in which each line starts with a letter of their name!

3rd Grade Coil Pots
3rd Grade Students learned about the process of creating coil pots and the drying process of clay. Students learned the techniques needed to be successful in Scoring and Slipping clay to build a strong and sturdy coil pot. Students were to first sketch their coil pot and design their coil walls, then utilize the techniques they learned to make that sketch come to life!
3rd Grade Art Club Collaborative 3d City Collage
In this picture, a student is finishing the last touches of an entire classes collaborative artwork. Each student in my Art Club created a collaged person and a 3d collaged box building. We then worked together as a class and tram to put it together for our display case! The artwork was inspired by Romare Bearden's collage style utilizing different textures, facial parts, body parts, and materials to create collaged artworks of city scenes in the mid 1900's! The other art movement that inspired us was surrealism as the people we collaged look estranged and dream like as some of them have objects as facial features and body parts, etc. Below, you can see some of the characters created up close!
