Beginner - Intermediate Level
Welcome to Eeveeology! This class is great for any kiddo who loves Eevee. In this fun, self-paced class, we will learn to sculpt all of the existing Eevee evolutions as well as many that haven't been created yet! **THIS CLASS HAS NO LIVE MEETINGS.** All instruction will be provided through pre-recorded videos and teacher interaction. Students are welcome to message me at any time and expect a response within 48 hours. I am so happy to help if you need it! Learners who complete two projects and one bonus activity per week can expect to finish this course in about five weeks; however, the class materials will be available for one year after taking the class. Therefore, students will have the freedom to complete their projects at their own pace at times that are convenient for your family. :) Each sculpture will be free standing and will stand 2-3 inches tall. Students can post photos of their finished projects so that we can enjoy them together. Students are also welcome to share pictures and videos of their Pokemon and Eevee swag such as stuffed animals, cards, books, etc. :) Students will also have the option to complete BONUS challenges! The bonus challenge will be an imaginary Eevee evolution. Students will be given a bonus tutorial video to complete the challenge; however, they are welcome to change or completely re-imagine the project into their own imaginary Eeveelution! I am so excited to see what we all create! I recommend polymer clay for each project; however, students are welcome to use any kind they have available. Students will be given step-by-step verbal and visual instructions on how to construct each character, but individual creativity and artistic expression is encouraged. The difficulty of this class can be rated as beginner-plus. This class is ok for most beginners; however, some students may need more assistance than others. Using polymer clay helps students develop excellent fine motor skills, concentration, and problem-solving abilities, all while having tons of fun! As the class goes on, the projects will become progressively more challenging and rewarding. By the end, your student will be an official Eeveeologist! I hope to see you there! Graduation Bonus: Students who complete this course will receive the following FREE bonus materials: Imaginary Ground-Type Eeveelution: Digeon Imaginary Poison-Type Eeveelution: Toxeon
Learning Goals
Students will improve their hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, concentration, and spatial reasoning.

Supply List
The best type of clay for this project is polymer, or oven-bake, clay. I recommend this sculpt and bake kit. It is great for beginners and has tons of useful tools and colors. It also contains many eye pins for making your sculpture hangable. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HQGP98D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_AmHIFbYBCEMC6 I have also used this smaller kit, and it is also excellent: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WJ41L9Z/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_loHIFb4A7W25F You are welcome to use any clay you'd like, but the larger set is the set we'll be working with in class. Bake at 260-275° under a foil tent for 25-30 minutes. After the timer stops, turn off the oven and leave your creation inside for 20-30 minutes to prevent rapid cool down. When clay cools too fast, it can crack. Parchment paper to cover your workspace Saran wrap Zipper bags (I recommend snack bags) Toothpicks If you do are not buying the above set, you will also need these: Clay - You may use white clay, but we will not be painting in class. I recommend pre-colored clay. Toothpicks Sculpting tools (suggested but not required) Child-safe knife or cutting tool Other good brands of polymer clay include: Sculpey Premo, Sculpey Souflee, Fimo, and Kato. Sculpey III is ok to use, but it is quite brittle and fragile after baking. If your student plans on playing with his or her creation, I do not recommend Sculpey III.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
Hello, parents!
My name is Christina Broadway, and I am so excited to meet your student! My older kids and young adults usually call me Ms. Broadway or "Ms. B." To the littles I'm typically known as "Ms. Christina."
I graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in English, and I'm working to earn Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction. Over the past 15 years, I have taught preschool, middle school, and high school children. I have taught online for almost 3 years. To say teaching is my calling is an understatement; I am a teacher at heart and it colors every aspect of my life.
My husband and I live on the Texas coast and love to fish, play board games, and travel.
My love for teaching began with English and Language Arts. Ironically, when I was in grade school, I found English to be very boring and rigid; however, when I got to college, I took some English courses that opened my eyes to how fun language and literature can be! I realized that while literacy and language art skills are important for social, academic, and vocational purposes, they can also be an avenue for creativity and artistic expression. I strive to make my classes both challenging and fun. Most of all, I always try to teach literature and grammar in a way that will be useful and meaningful to my students throughout their lives.
Finally, I am an artist. I am a self-taught baker, sculptor, and painter. (I have even painted some classic works of art ON CAKE!) I believe art is a valuable tool for cultivating self-expression, analytical skills, and emotional health. Children who participate in art and music programs are statistically more likely to perform better in their core subjects. As a result, I love connecting with students through art. I strive to make my art classes accessible for learners of all skill levels and abilities. I am truly amazed by what children are capable of when we give them the guidance and opportunity.
Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me. I hope to see you soon!
