Year 5 Pottery

Year 5 had a fantastic art focus day on sculpture. We looked at and analysed the work of 3 artists who use clay to create beautiful sculptures. We then looked at a range of example Greek pots before designing our own (to be made out of clay coils). The teachers modelled clay sculpting techniques and the children then made their own pots (based on their design). The children (and teachers) were thrilled with the pots made. We even had a class gallery at the end of the day to showcase and evaluate the work with our peers.
