  21. Organic vs Geometric Sculpture *Students in clay class identified and defined geometric and organic shapes. *They built sculptures with paper to show a contrast of the two types of shapes. *They practiced attaching pieces together and getting the sculpture to stand. *This is practice for their first clay sculpture that will be the same concept using slabs of clay.
