My Project

Providing my students with a clay experience will make a huge difference in their learning. They will be able to work in a three-dimensional space, creating hand-building clay projects that are exciting and full of creativity. Having access to clay tools and glazes will enhance their experience as well.

Working with clay is a wonderful medium for children to work with as it enhances their fine motor skills and self-confidence.

My students have asked to work with clay and love new experiences such as this one which will happen with your help! My students are eager to learn and love creating art!
