4th grade clay dishes
Our 4th graders had so much fun turning simple clay into something “fin-tastic”! 🐟
We started with Crayola air-dry clay and learned how to create a basic pinch pot. From there, students carefully shaped their pots into fish dishes. Once the form was set, they sculpted details like eyes, tails, and fins, then used popsicle sticks and clay tools to carve beautiful scales and textures.
After letting their creations dry completely, the artists brought their fish to life with colorful acrylic paints. To finish them off, we added a glossy acrylic spray for that shiny, ceramic-like look.
It’s always amazing to see how each student starts with the same technique but ends up with a totally unique piece. So proud of their creativity and craftsmanship!
