Classroom project requested by Mrs. Short on Jun 21, 2012
|
Do you remember what it was like the first time you touched clay in art class? Well for most of you and most of my students the only place they will get to touch clay is in art class. Creating objects out of this sticky gooey substance is one of the oldest forms of art known to mankind.
I am requesting 14 boxes of clay and one classroom set of gloss glazes. I will still have to order other supplies on my own but this will be the bulk of what my students will need to get creative with clay this year. Each grade level will do a different clay project based on the elements and principles of art. They will learn about kilns, kiln furniture, cones, the stages of clay, the magic color changing ability of glazes, and clay tools. Some students will even get to assist me in loading and unloading the kiln.
