Clay Sculpture, Second Semester

Students learned about the three main hand-building techniques for clay sculpture: pinch pot, coil, and slab. Students were asked to create a sculpture (anything that they wanted!!!), that included all three hand-building techniques. After students finished sculpting, our sculptures were fired in my kiln. Then, students glazed their sculptures, and they were fired one more time to allow the glaze to turn to glass. Take a look at select 6th grade creations!
