Cardboard art projects middle school

Cardboard cut-out art

This middle or high school sculpture unit only requires a couple of simple materials at a very low cost. Students learn about various famous artists and then choose one of their works to recreate as a cardboard relief sculpture. Students practice their observational drawings skills and learn about foreground, middle ground, and background as well as multiple techniques to create texture using cardboard. The project takes about 2-3 weeks to complete depending on the length of the classes.

Materials As much as possible I try to use recyclable materials for construction art lessons. I source these from Recreate or ask the children to bring things in from home. Recyclable materials Bottles Caps Cardboard boxes (cereal/shoeboxes etc.) Wrapping paper Scrap paper Containers (yoghurt pots/egg cartons) Other materials Tin foil Scissors Foam sheets Stickers Crepe paper Pipe
