Then the challenge:
Create 5 hollow pod forms (two pinch pots scratched-to-attached together) that are all a different shape.
Push in two unique textures on 2 of the forms.
Add on two unique textures on 2 of the forms.
Use a combination of push in and add on for the last form.
HINT: Adjust the numbers on this to fit your students level
Next create a tray or bowl (this could be a simple slab or a large pinch pot) to hold all of your textured pods but don't scratch-to-attach them to the container. Be sure to poke a hole into the hollow space of each of your pods so that they don't explode in the kiln and then let all of your parts dry well and bisque fire them. When glazing allow your students to paint the entire surface of each form and the surface of the container for them. When they are in the glaze firing the pods will fuse to the container you have made to hold them and will create an interesting piece of abstract art. Be inspired by natures forms, textures and colors for this project.
