A1:
PLAY, CLAY & FIRE: PRIMITIVE
PIT-FIRING TECHNIQUES FOR ANY
CLASSROOM
INSTRUCTOR(S):
Alex Mandli, Racine
Unified School District
GRADE LEVEL: K-12
This workshop is for not just art
teachers. From regular
education teachers in schools
without an art specialist or a kiln,
to high school art teachers that
would like to involve their students
in every aspect of the pottery
making and pit-firing process there
will be much for you to learn.
We will use play as the method of
learning and discovery.
Through the pit-firing process the
aim will be to motivate your
students to research, read and write
about ancient cultures and their
pottery. The students will
observe, record and evaluate their
journey through this process.
Workshop participants will make,
decorate and fire their own pottery.
We will study the pottery of other
cultures through slides, videos and
Internet research. One week is
not enough time to do all this, so,
there will be some enjoyable
homework! But, you will have
fun!
