Sand Sculptures

edited by: William C. Ritz and William Straits

This activity is for making things with sand and water. At a sand table or in a sandbox, let the children begin by exploring dry sand and then add water to the sand. Wet sand allows children to try out many more ideas than dry sand does. Encourage them to use the sand in many different ways. A materials list, internet resources, standards, and safety practices are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, Preface, About the Editors, Introduction, Simple Graphing for Young Children, Science Teaching Boards and Boxes, Basic Materials List, and Index.
