What materials are sculptures made from? Many sculptures are made of clay or stone. We decided that sculptures can also be made with magnets! To make their magnetic sculptures, students needed to know about the properties of a magnet. First, students decided what materials were useful in making a magnetic sculpture. By applying what they knew about magnets, students then discussed plans with a small group, made sketches, wrote lists of the magnetic materials, and wrote down any steps needed to follow to build their sculpture. We constructed our sculptures and look forward to creating a classroom gallery!
