This year the 5th graders made 2-D Greek vases on terracotta and bisque shaded cardstock. They drew narrative scenes on their vases with themes and colors similar to traditional Greek vases. The students drew scenes from everyday Greek life, War, Gods and Goddesses, Olympics and Mythology. The scenes are framed by typical Greek patterns and motifs.
Using recycled cardboard and paper-mache, the 5th graders created three-dimensional Greek vases. Viewing samples of Ancient Greek red and black bisqueware and taking inspiration from their in-class lessons, the students depicted a central figure on their vase inspired by Greek mythology , accompanied by patterns and motifs. Their creations will be on display for the Greek Symposium.
