We've started making canopic jars (or a version of) in my middle school elective class. So far, the kids have chosen an animal that they feel has characteristics that may portray a godlike or special quality. We are just starting to build the armatures. So far, they are really embracing the project, yesterday when I said it was time to clean up it was as if I was addressing an empty room. About 5 minutes later, I asked why no-one had started cleaning up one student said, "Oh, you said clean up? We're just so engaged in our artwork we didn't even hear that!"
