This week's featured unit is by the 4th grade.
The month of December was devoted to learning about constructing with slabs and creating textures in our clay. Joining clay together is a tricky process that takes patience and skill.
The students learned to use a variety of tools and every student constructed a mug that survived the drying and firing process! Students were encouraged to explore different ways to create textures and patterns on their mugs.
The students finished their mugs with colorful gloss glazes.

Not an example of slab construction, but a fun piece made during free clay time!
