The class was very excited to have the opportunity to make their own pottery. Some of the students had experience doing it before and enjoyed the chance to try it again. For those that were sitting at the wheel for the first time, it proved a very positive experience. The kids were happy to get a little messy touching the clay and were truly amazed at how easily they could manipulate the shape of the clay, but just applying pressure and moving their fingers. When they were finished with their design , the students were then able to sit at a table and decorate it. They each picked a color and are waiting anxiously to see their finished products when they are returned to school.
