These ceramics supplies are critical to bringing our creations to life and learning the clay-working skills necessary to succeed in Ceramics. We have some tools, clay, and glaze in our classroom studio now, but the work my student's have been dreaming of and carefully planning requires more color options and more specific tools for carving and shaping our clay. This list of tools also includes two new types of clay for advanced students to work with to stretch their creative talents by adapting to the feel and unique textures of new clay. The ceramics studio is a place of color, form, texture and FUN-these materials will give us more options to bring our creative visions into being. The bulk of this wish list are undergalzes, which are the "paint" of the ceramics world. Underglaze allows for color mixing and matching, something traditional glaze can't offer. With these underglazes, students will master color theory standards and apply them to their sculptural and useful objects. Eventually, as their visions become actualized, students will take their artwork home to share with their families, which increases the joy and creative wonder that is so critical to artistic development. The arts are so critical in these trying, emotionally burnt-out times. they are a balm for our distressed psyches. Help me give my students and their families the gift of colorful creations and the experience of bringing them to life.
