You might want to consider paper sculpture. Paper pop-ups and cut paper work are 3-D and gaining in popularity. Origami is also coming into its own. All of these fit the bill - no water and 3-D.
If you get the opportunity check out the movie "Between the Folds"
This should keep you busy until the end of school.
Have fun,

About a week ago I was informed that the remodel my school was scheduled to go through would begin with my classroom and I had to have everything packed and moved form my ceramic room in one weeks time. They were moving me and my classes to our small gym. Now I teach high school beginning art and three classes of ceramic. I won't have access to a kiln and the water they told me I had is in a small girls restroom.

I want to use this opportunity to do projects that I typically wouldn't do because they didn't fall under ceramic. So any suggestions on 3-D projects that don't require a lot of water and easy access to materials would be very appreciated.
