Students will learn a variety of techniques using a mid-range clay body tinted with Mason Stains, such as: Nerikomi (a Japanese technique of creating patterns with colored clay) Agateware (a blending and swirling technique) Skinner Blends (rolling out colored clay in a fluid gradient). The techniques will be applied to an assortment of vessels and sculptures. Some previous experience with pottery is useful but not required. Bring sketch book and pencil.
The Greenhouse Project! Join us for this year long Engineering course in which students will apply STEM concepts to continue a student led design for a greenhouse classroom for the resource center. They will learn real world skills such as: drafting, website design, prototyping, marketing, design modeling, applied mathematics, and teamwork while they work together to develop a functional greenhouse design that can be built and utilized at the resource center. At the end of the year students will showcase their design as well as their inactive website when they present their work to the center and the gardening teachers, and if accepted, it may be implemented for real!
