1. CLAY TILES

2. Learning Targets I can demonstrate understanding of the technical process involved in ceramics. I can recognize the difference between shape and form.

31. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: ALL AREAS MUST BE ¼ IN DEPTH (MORE FOR BOWLS THAT A FOOT WILL BE CARVED FROM) ALL CLAY SCULPTURES MUST BE HALLOWED OUT ON THE INSIDE & A HOLE THROUGH THE BOTTOM MUST BE MADE TO RELIEVE PRESSURE. IF THIS IS NOT DONE IT WILL EXPLODE & BREAK ALL PIECES IN THE KILN!!! ATTACH A 3-D PIECE TO YOUR CLAY WORK. THIS PIECE WILL BE CREATED SEPARATELY THEN ATTACHED TO MAIN CLAY PIECE USING A SCORING AND SLIPPING TECHNIQUE (TUTORIAL WILL BE GIVEN). NO METAL, PLASTIC, OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL OTHER THAN CLAY CAN BE USED/ATTACHED!!! YOUR NAME MUST BE CARVED (DEEP) ON THE BACK/BOTTOM. YOU ALSO MAY WANT TO CARVE A LIP ON THE BACK WHERE YOU CAN HANG ON A WALL WITH A NAIL. MUST INCORPORATE A TEXTURE/PATTERN. THIS WILL BE DONE BY PRESSING SOMETHING INTO THE SURFACE OF YOUR WORK. MAKE SURE YOU PRESS EVENLY SO TEXTURE IS UNIFORM IN DEPTH! MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO RIPPLES ON THE SURFACE WHILE YOU ARE PRESSING YOUR TEXTURE.

32. Wednesday, October 21 st On a piece of paper, draw another 6 inch x 6 inch square (or your design for clay – bowl, sculpture, etc. Must be of reasonable size - not too big) You can cut out this square to act as a stencil Knead your clay for at least 5 minutes Video for kneading clay: http://ceramicartsdaily.org/ceramic- supplies/pottery-clay/clay-wedging-101-a-great- way-to-teach-and-learn-to-wedge-clay-properly/ http://ceramicartsdaily.org/ceramic- supplies/pottery-clay/clay-wedging-101-a-great- way-to-teach-and-learn-to-wedge-clay-properly/ Place a board under your clay to prevent it from sticking to the table. Use a rolling pin to evenly roll out your clay (CLAY THICKNESS IN ALL AREAS MUST BE AT LEAST ¼ INCH THICK!) Place your 6 inch x 6 inch stencil over your clay and carefully cut clay tile Spritz with water! (If your clay starts to crack, it’s too dry!)

33. To add a 3-dimensional piece to the top of your clay piece: you need to slip and score your clay so it will stick to each other!! Video Lesson: Slipping and scoring – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FmELXN0W_M YOU MUST ADD AT LEAST 1 3-D CLAY PIECE & TEXTURE TO YOUR ARTWORK!!!

34. Kiln A furnace for firing ceramics and pottery. Average Temperature: 1750-2300 degrees Clay work takes at least 24 hours to cool after it has been fired.

35. Questions How have you seen ceramics used in your everyday life? What is the difference between 2D & 3D artwork? What do you like & dislike about ceramics? Define shape and form (include a written and an illustrated example) in your sketchbook.
