***This course is ONLY for Grades 1-5*** Here the studio art experience is brought to you! In ceramics, we work with clay sculpting, making decorative art, and functional items like useable cups and bowls. The students make and paint their art with non-toxic colors that are then transported to a kiln, bisque, and glaze fired with a clear food-safe finish. They are beautiful and durable glazed ceramics. It's fun and students will learn the fundamentals of sculpture and hand-building. Some use of drape molds and small tools. Glass Fusing is a special activity! Students take precut clear and colored glass, arrange a design using clear glue gel, and set the pieces in place. They are then transported to a kiln and fused. Some projects like tiles, hanging glass art, necklace pendants, magnets, picture frames, and nameplates are some examples. The teacher can cut certain shapes for the students. Artwork comes back to the classroom throughout the program all work received by the last class. Usually, we finish with a self-hardening clay project they take home on the last day.
