Pinch Pot Fish

The first Grade students created these awesome little fish by making a pinch pot then adding details like the eyes and fins. This is great because it builds on their prior knowledge- I have the kindergarten students make very simple pinch pots. This takes two class periods, one to make the fish and one to glaze them.


Level: 1st grade
Length of time: Two 45 minute class periods
Vocabulary: Pinch Pots, Glaze, Fire, Kiln
