The course is divided into a review session on Mondays and the accompanying lab on Wednesdays. The teacher's fee is for both the review and the lab. The review session is to hold students accountable for getting the work done in a timely manner as well as cover difficult concepts that students often have difficulty understanding. Two weeks are being allotted for each module. Students are expected to keep up with the readings and come to lab prepared. This is a full-year course intended to help satisfy a student’s high school lab science credit requirements. Instructor will administer and correct tests and keep grade records.

Inevitably, there will also be sweet little independent creations like pizzas, dice and lizards. Your students will have plenty of creative freedom and even have the opportunity to team up for some joint sculptural projects. Tactile contact is one of the first experiences we have in this life so touching clay and experiencing ceramic art is a very grounding experience. The ceramic studio becomes a weekly source of art therapy, camaraderie and joy. Students will have some minimal cleanup chores, like washing the wooden tools and sponges in the provided water buckets or wiping down their areas after glazing days. Junior ceramic students are bound to have a lot of fun together in this class as they learn the old craftsmanship of working with clay.
