Bird’s Nest
(K-5th | 60 min)
Calling all my artists and nature lovers! In this fun-filled, lesson artists will learn how to sculpt a bird’s nest using Model Magic clay or salt dough. Twigs, yarn, and other natural elements can be added to the nest and real or fabric flowers and leaves can adorn the outside. In this mixed-media art project, we even look at real nests together and get hands-on experience with the science, engineering, and art required to build a bird’s nest. Let’s get sculpting!
Each lesson comes with a step-by-step art video tutorial and downloadable lesson plan designed to make teaching easy and learning fun.
You get:
- A guided video to learn from and reteach or play directly for your artists
- A printable PDF with learning objectives, vocabulary, “I Can” statements, shoppable supply lists, teaching tips, and step-by-step process.
- National Art Standards alignment and fun facts to enrich every project
