Artfully Understanding the Earth

Jamie Matheis engages her third-grade class at Fisher Elementary by combining creative art activities with geography lessons. Students are exploring continents and oceans through the creation of papier-mâché globes. This creative project allows students to visualize and understand the layout of the Earth’s surface, its continents and the surrounding oceans.
