4TH GRADE: CLAY FISH

 To create the body of their fish, students recalled what they learned in 2nd grade about making pinch pots. The pinch pot became the body & open mouth of their fish.




                                  Students also recalled how to roll coils to  use for fins, tails or details.
 They used the slip and score method to make sure that the things they added to their fish did not fall of when the fish dried.
 After the students glazed their fish, they were fired in the kiln.

 Fantastic & creative fish! I love these!
