All focus activities, closures, project requirements will be listed on this blog.
For TODAY: We will continue to recycle clay and if possible begin to wedge or kneed your clay so that you can begin making pots tomorrow.
{Focus Activity: Write these definitions down.}
Earthenware: A clay that fires at low temperature. It is a good clay for beginners and also is good for throwing a pot on the wheel. It is the clay you will be using in this class.
Recycling clay: Reusing scraps of clay by mixing it with water and working it into the table or plaster until enough moisture has been absorbed that you can wedge or kneed your clay back into a workable consistency. You can not recycle clay once it has been fired.
{Closure: Answer this question.}
When can you not recycle clay?
