J's clay creations

Here are J's clay creations made in her pottery class so far this semester. You can't really tell from the picture, but one side of her mug is a slanted. ;) But this is good start as this class is for 3rd-5th graders and I think she's doing just fine. She has been using her own hand made and hand painted mug a lot. I'm sure she'll also find some good use for her heart container as well.



I didn't realize she has been keeping a journal about her pottery class as well. She wrote about how she made the heart clay container and about it's sometimes hard to paint her pottery.

While J is in pottery class, Prime takes a 5 in a row class which is a unit study class. He wishes he can take pottery class too which I plan to let him in the fall. This is the picture he brought back today. Cute, eh? I'm not sure what the cat has to do with Florida, but supposedly that's what they are learning and reading.
