As you enter the room you will need to acquire the accordion book you created during our last class.The following 5 images will be projected on the screen:
you will make a sketch of one of these five, whichever you choose, and assign it one of the following ratings.
1. I like it and I think it is good
2. I don't like it and I don't think it is good
3. I like it but don't think it is very good
4. I don't like it but I have to admit it is good
Then you need to explain why you gave it that rating.
You will have the first 10 minutes of class to complete these pages in your book. Think about it overnight. Think about it as you go through your day.

LESSON FOR THE DAY
We continue our explorations of Tools and Texture through the making of functional bowls and cups.
During our last session we used our hands to develop a basic vessel from a ball of clay. Our hands were the tools. For this studio session we will further our understanding of tools by making them ourselves.
You will design and fabricate your own clay tool for texture from a given buffet of materials. your tool must be able to create at least 3 different textures that you will demonstrate in the completion of your first vessel. You are being evaluated on your ingenuity and risk taking.
Your tool will be graded using the following rubric:
The three criteria are worth 5 points each for a total of 15
Your vessel will be graded in terms of not only aesthetics but functionality. That is to say it needs to look good and work well. For the Pinched Vessel you will be evaluated on the following rubric:
The two criteria are worth 5 points each for a total of 10
