This studio class provides an opportunity for students to work on their creativity and
artistic expression, as well as critical thinking, patience and hand-eye coordination while
creating 3D forms in clay. Working with clay is a physical process with many stages that
allow for input from the artist. The students will use a variety of tools and techniques
(hand building and pottery wheel) to create both functional and sculptural forms while
they explore clay and its transformation, by the firing process, into ceramics.
When Repeating:
Students will be required to complete projects using a higher level of skill, technique and
creative problem solving.
Dual Credit: Junior and senior students with applicable skills and understanding may
enroll for dual credit with Missouri State University for college credit.
