For our annual clay projects each grade had a different project. We explored Crayon Air Dry Clay and how to build and sculpt. We practiced by creating pinch pots. This vessel was used as the base to create many of our pieces and we worked with what we had in the classroom. The pieces were painted with tempura paint and then sealed and glazed using Modge Podge. Clay is always everyone’s favorite time of year!
