Making Food from Modelling Clay and using Methods of Clay Hand-Building Techniques!

Clay art modelling is a fun art activity that involves the sculpting and moulding of modelling clay into a variety of shapes and objects.

Hand-building is working with clay by hand using only simple tools.

Our Key stage 2 students have been transforming their sketching work with the use of modelling clay.

Students practice their sculpting and hand building skills along with gaining knowledge about different types of clay.

Using the different tools such as the ball tool, they were able to press an indentation into the clay to create a smooth shape.

They also used other tools that helped them form their modelling clay into the desired shaped object showing great detail.
