Face Pots, 5th Grade
I have done this lesson several times with my students. It is always one of my favorite art lessons. We begin this lesson by creating a coil pot. Once the coil pot is created, students add details to create a face on their pot. Some students do an animal face, while others do a human face.
Unfortunately, we do not have the time or the money to glaze these pots. I thought about having them use tempera paint on them, but I decided that the clay was pretty enough on its own.
