this is it!

12/17/2013

The semester ends on January 24 - thus we need two weeks before the end of the semester to finish, clean and have the advanced students do presentations.
Thus Last day of wet clay is Monday jan 13. Last footing Tuesday Jan 14. All projects must be bisque kiln ready by Weds Jan 15. Last glaze that Friday - DO not wait until the very end. No guarantee it will get done.

Today in Pd 5 and tomorrow in pd 4 I will do the planter demo, then next week the lidded project.

Remember you should have some extra credit if you would like an A

Advanced students you should have some theme thoughts posted as of now - will put that in grade book.

Main idea needs to be posted by This Friday Dec 13.
Outline Friday Dec 19
Friday Jan 10 - rough draft
Firday Jan 17 final draft & finished gallery
final presentations Tues & Weds jan 21 & 22

Important part of your grade. Please don't get behind.

One bisque today, one on Friday before the holiday. Must be in bisque by Friday to ensure holiday delivery.

lidded project due next week. Very little project time after the break. Last day of wet clay is Monday Jan 13!

Planters, new team, sludging!

12/10/2013

We will change team jobs today - and, if necessary, practice the jobs.

Batts, tools, sponges, and buckets in the sink need more attention.
But, hey, who's not cleaning up their own batts, tools, and sponges?

Three weeks of wet clay until the end!

do what needs doing - I am out - bisque out on Friday.

Period five should sludge - team 'Know Names' - Sam, Trisha & Jacob

Remember as we go on - I am expecting to see some mastery of skills - is the base as thin as the top of the project? How is the foot ring? Is the lip compressed? is the base compressed? How tall can you make it and still keep it thin and controlled?

Advanced - Have you blogged this week?

Have you put up a post in your theme blog? You need a few comment on possible ideas - and it needs to be up as of last week. So make sure it's there.

How many finished projects do you have up on line?

finish up projects that are due - bisque on Wednesday if enough stuff.
