In line with our topic Natural Disasters, this half term we are making clay pots - just like the ones found in Pompeii after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius! Before making our final product, as part of the planning stage, we have been looking at how we can manipulate clay in different ways in order to create different outcomes.
In our art lesson this week, we rolled, pinched, wedged and developed how to use slip and score to attach two pieces of clay. All useful skills for when we'll make our pots and attach their handles!
