When a student is stressed over grades, tests, activities, friendships - I reach for clay.
Non-hardening polymer clay — it reshapes without breaking. Same skill we want students to practice when they’re overwhelmed.
Try tomorrow:
1. “Pick colors that feel like right now. Just explore it.”
2. “Show what the worry looks like.”
3. “If you could change something about it, what would it look like?”
Clay is resilient, just like our students. It doesn’t have to harden to hold its shape — it learns to reshape.
Save for the next overwhelming moment. Follow along for more art-based strategies 🎨
