Clay Creature Reflection. March 26, 2012
1. The good parts of my clay creature is the body form because the body looks like an elephants body.
2. What I could have done better on this project was the eyes because they were messed up.
3. My unity was an elephant. I chose that creature because I thought it would be fun to create that animal in clay.
4. My form was a small elephant that was 2 inches tall and the movement was the elephant walking.
5. The texture on my elephant was like sandy because I used a sponge.
6. What I learned from this project was even though you get frustrated never give up. Taking your time is a lesson you can apply to life because the more time you take the better it will look.
7. I did it the way I did because I wanted to make something small and cute. I was planned because I thought it would be sorta easy.
8. Yes it is a worth while project. I think Mr. Purdy should give the students a choice to create whatever they would like.
