Kristi started this lesson by talking to my 3rd graders about what architecture is and then showed them a variety of unusual homes. They talked for a while about what architectural elements make a home look like a home and how you can tell people live there.
Then she had students create a sketch of an unusual home that they wanted to create with clay.
The next day students began creating their clay homes (including adding a LOT of cool texture)! :)
Unfortunately she left before my students had a chance to paint their artwork.. so that's what I did with them this past week. :)
They are super cute!!

What an interesting clay project, I bet your students had a lot of fun designing their crazy house!
