Dell Morris, demonstrated the art to Dees class, and showed the students how to mold a little head Mr. Morris took an interest in Dee, who showed exceptional interest in the art, and visited him later to help him finish his fifth-grad- ' e head. That interest held throughout junior high, and Dee, a student at West I.ake, made the model of the school's mascot, a Mustang, which still stands in the West Lake hall. When he attended Granger high, Dee had Mr. Morris as his teacher, and he introduced him to working in tronze and encouraged him to continue his efforts in sculpture. He also introduced him to Edward J. Frampton, who helped him to become a professional in the field. Mr. Bawden has since completed a statue of Jesus with children, which he presented to President Spencer W. Kimball, and recently completed a life size Bengal tiger, in bronze, the mascot of Ogden high, which will be dedicated in a ceremony to be held February 7. Now the wheel has turned full circle. Last week Dee Bawden visited Dee Bawden, works with the students at Whittier Elementary in sculpturing classes. With him Is his daughter, Amy, a student at the school. The class teacher looks on. The children were fascinated, and all anxious to take their clay home and show their parents how to make head, comments the teacher. Clay work is very valuable to a child, she explains. Not just as a creative art, although it is certainly that, but also for developing muscles in arms and hands, and preparing the child for good writing skills. It is also of therapeutic value, she tells, because a child can express joy, melancholy, anger, or other feelings while working with the clay. It was certainly enjoyable for me to visit the class, tells Mr. Bawden, "and it was fun to work on the figure of my little daughter in front of her classmates. They all took such an interest in the procedure. Dee and his wife, Joann, also an artist who enjoys working with oils, have four children, Amy, 5; Jay, 4; old Molly. Angela, 2, and Mrs. Benson comments that she likes to invite her students parents to participate in the classroom whenever possible. This allows the children to experactivites ience many multi-culturand builds a bond between the students and adults. One students mother, a full blooded Apache, was able to tell children e and show about the Apache them many artifacts, and to help them to make Indian bread. A father helped students build a TeePee. Another mother demonstrated tiedying, with each student making a quilt block. The mother and teacher combined the childrens blocks into a quilt and a tapestry, tells the teacher. Parent participation in the classroom is great, for the children, the parents, and the teacher, she concludes. a Dee Bowden, ot Whittier elementory, demonstrating to his sculptures class, shows the likeness of his daughter Amy, to the 'head' he made of her. He allowed the children to experiment with their own clay work, tells Mrs. Benson. his old school, Whittier elementary, to introduce kindergarten students to the art of sculpture. Mr. Bawden visited both the morning and afternoon classes taught by Faye Benson, demonstrated his work,, using a statue he is making of his daughter, Amy, who is in the kindergarten class. of a Each child was given about pound of clay to work with, and encouraged to try to make a head, first rolling a ball, then flattening one end like an egg, adding nose, ears, a neck and hair.
