    Hi Ruth --
    Some things I do with elementary sculpture:
    Kdg: Color sculpture (mixing 2 primary play-dough colors),
            Line sculpture (wire -- I use twisteez),
            Texture sculpture (clay with impressed textures),
            and then, since they like play-dough so much, they make necklaces by
    threading playdough mini-sculptures onto yarn (I thread the blunt needles
    first and tie them off later)
    1st grade: aluminum foil sculptures,
            and we also do clay for Cave art
    2nd grade:papier mache egyptian treasure bowl,
            white paper straw sculptures to study 3-D line,
            animal textures in clay
    3rd grade: plaster carving (Renaissance tie-in)
    4th grade: relief sculpture -- African mask design tooling foil,
            coil pot
    5th grade: Cut-up ceiling tile sculpture, reinforcing right & acute angles
    and use of color to direct eye,
            wire (I used electric fencing wire) figures wrapped with plaster
    craft.
    Hope this helps!
