Clay is a favorite project for students. It’s been so sad to have missed out on messy projects during remote learning and in-person Covid protocols. Last year I rallied so 5th graders could get one last project in before middle school. This year’s 5th graders haven’t done clay since their 2nd grade fish sculpture. I’m trying to get in some practice before their “independent choice” 5th grade project they’ll be doing this year. Here’s a one-and-done pinch pot project for them, using a colored clay body instead of glaze.
