Kindergarten Pinch Pots

Kinders got their hands dirty with clay recently! They made PINCH POTS by rounding their clay into a SPHERE, giving a thumbs up, then sticking their thumb into the center of their sphere. To open up the clay into a pot shape they pinched the edges with their other fingers. By our next class the clay had dried and students painted using either WARM or COOL colors.


Students were not only excited to make their pinch pots, but even more excited to take them home!





Some lessons have been taught to multiple grade levels. Not all schools participate in the same lessons due to budget, materials, student needs, etc. Please leave a comment with praise, questions, or ways to polish.
