IN-CLASSROOM SESSION 7
DECEMBER 4, 2019
Attendance in classroom: 13/16
During this lesson, two of the adults were absent, so today was the perfect day to start painting the columns white.
The groups were divided to start painting the columns, and while they were painting, the students did a fun activity relating architecture and their bodies.
They created a mansion and skyscraper with their bodies on the floor of how they envisioned it in their heads. Then some did a fun compression and tension exercise to see what it was like with their bodies rather than objects.
Today was more about painting and getting the columns ready for its natural elements!

IN-CLASSROOM SESSION 8
DECEMBER 11, 2019
Attendance in classroom: 14/16
Today was exciting because the students got to put together the columns for their primitive hut. They remembered the relation between nature and material and was excited to replicate their own classroom version of what it would look like.
It was great because when the architects arrived, each student already had a baggy of their own stuff to glue onto the columns.
The students each took turns filling the columns up with their leaf embossings, flowers, 3D flowers, and whatever else they decided to make throughout the different lessons. The students enjoyed seeing the relationship between nature and the columns, and especially were big fans of the 3D flowers they created because they made the columns “pop”. While others were gluing, some decided to make more 3D flowers to be able to fill in the gaps.
