5th Grade Driftwood Horse Sculptures

Inspired by the larger-than-life-size sculptures of horses from metal and wood by Deborah Butterfield, fifth graders created smaller horse sculptures from small pieces of driftwood joined with hot glue to create forms and, in some cases, little vignettes.  It was fun to see the many different ways students approached this assignment to conceive and create these forms, and what details each student highlighted in their sculptures.
