In this 4 day on-line 3-D clay camp, students will make various things out of clay that are useful and decorative. Most importantly we will learn how to manipulate clay using water, air, imagination, and our fingers and hands.

Students will learn to pinch clay, to squeeze clay, and to roll clay. Learners will by the end of class know how to make a character pot, clay flowers, butterfly, fish, and a patterned bowl Why Clay? 1. It's therapeutic. Simply the act of molding clay in one's hands whether you're a child or an adult can be very calming. Remember those stress balls that were once so popular? Manipulating the clay can help relieve stress or even be an outlet for young children who physically express their emotions. 2. It's an outstanding sensory development activity 3. It's play based learning. You might not realize it, but playing with clay is promoting minds to get busy by thinking about what they're going to create and how they're going to create it. This type of creative play promotes imaginative problem-solving skills.
I have been working with clay since middle school age. I attended a Visual and performing arts school in Sarasota FL which is still there to this day. I was in the first pioneering class to be created at the school in the 80's. We had 3-4 pottery wheels and it was my most favorite class. Later as an adult when I lived in Miami FL. I purchased my own pottery wheel and have made many things on the wheel. I taught each of my three daughters on the wheel from a very young age(4, 5, or 6).

It usually comes in black or white. Any local art or craft supply store will carry self hardening clay. It is also sometimes called air dry clay.

Parental guidance is not needed. Optional: parents can help their students by sitting next to them off camera or just be nearby in case the student needs hands-on help. Camera angle: for the clay work try to angle your camera on the table where you are working so I can see what you are doing and I'll do the same.
