Exploring the Lives of Africa Through Pottery

Help my students investigate African American face jugs through the construction of face mugs.

Kernersville, NC Grades 6-8

My Project

We are a a Tittle One school with limited supplies. Our school is located in a district that doesn't allow money for art supplies like clay and colored pencils. We want to explore why and how face jugs were constructed. We will go back in history and visit the lives of slaves and how they continued their tradition. Clay is a very engaging medium and all my students are always excited for the clay unit. They become engaged in every part of this project. The district supplied clay for students but not anymore. Please help our students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
