The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students are the essential tools for learning in our class. I have 15 students on average and I only have 3 potter's wheels. I desperately need more supplies that will benefit the students' learning. Before I even start class the students are fighting over the wheels we have. One of the most satisfying experiences I have gained from teaching pottery is when I give a demonstration on the potter's wheel and I hear my students say, "I will never be able to do that." Then, in a week or two, with so much excitement, they are doing just that. You can actually see their self-confidence and learning grow.
