Clay Creations by SES Art Students |
|
May-June
2008: For the second year in a row SES students in
grades 1-5 had the opportunity to make individual works
of art out of clay. Each piece was formed, fired,
glazed, and fired again. Since students have art
only once a week, this was a giant project lasting more
than a month. |
|
|
|
Fifth grade volunteers helped
younger students
made hand prints. Other students made "pinch pots."
Some
classes made suns or other flat works. Many students chose to form their own figures. |
|
|
|
The finished pieces must be
thoroughly dry before they can be fired for the first time. |

To do the glazing students needed to
visualize their final product and trust the
color names on the containers. The colors change during firing in
the kiln. |
