Time for Fun!
We are starting our fourth workbox week, and I am still extremely satisfied with the entire system! One big bonus that I’ve already mentioned is that we have more time for fun.
I picked up a book about clay at that last library sale. It has been handy. The first few pages taught Elijah how to make the basic shapes. I had him work on those pages a few times (a la workboxes), and today I told him to pick a snake or bug to make from the next few pages.
He worked on this project for a very long time with great concentration.
finished work-
I see Sculpey Clay in my future. I hope I can find a big fat pack at convention to buy for him.
Elijah has always been attracted to 3-D art. He was so thrilled when he finished that I pulled out some of Simon’s Usborne books that are illustrated with clay creations. He was so happy to see this as a real medium. How fun!
Thank you workboxes. I would’ve never had "time" for this in our regular school day before!
