8th Grade Cake Sculptures

Some may see these cakes as simply fun and decorative. Really they are a symbolic project and an example of visualization. 8th Grade Students set a goal, either academic, personal or social. Then, they designed a slice a cake to represent the celebration they would have when meeting that goal. It was very interesting to read the artist statements that accompanied their projects. I think the students took this opportunity for goal setting very seriously. So Proud!

Looney Tunes are a GREAT way to hook students into scale drawings. Add oil pastels and KABOOM! Check out these awesome characters. :)
