The 7/8 graders are required to develop their own art project–one self-guided project for each year. I mentor the students through this process and seek out opportunities to learn from other professionals in our community on the topic. Ryan and Mike came up with a ceramic dimensional landscape tile project. They made the calculations for needed materials, purchased and sanded the wood, and made the piece during art class and after school. I supplied the necessary ceramic supplies, equipment and gave them technical support along the way.
