In this class, learners will experiment with a variety of pottery techniques. They will work on developing small motor skills, increase their creativity, and have fun making functional and artistic pottery projects.

For each lesson, learners will need air dry or natural modelling clay, acrylic paint and paintbrushes, mod podge, and the following pottery tools :
Rolling pin, toothpicks, a pencil, a small paper or plastic bowl, popsicle sticks, a small sponge, and a little dish of water. An art mat or plastic placemat will also come in handy.

45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
