Word Wall Terms What is clay? Clay is decomposed fine particles of granite-type rock.

Ways of working with clay A coil is a rolled “wormlike” piece of clay. It can be stacked on top of each other to form objects.

A slab is a flat piece of clay

The pinch method is using the fingers and thumbs to pinch the clay into shape.

Preparing the clay for use Wedging: the process of folding clay over, working it with the heel of the hand to get a uniform consistency and rid it of air Just like kneading bread dough! Gets rid of air bubbles so clay does not explode in the kiln

Slip is liquid or watered down clay. Used for joining 2 pieces or smoothing surfaces.

Joining two pieces of clay Score and slip the process of putting cross-hatch marks and slip where two sides come together Seals clay together

Plasticity is workability; flexibility. This is clay ready to be sculpted with.

Leather-hard most of the moisture is gone less plastic good for building

Greenware a completed bone-dry piece of clay Has not been fired in the kiln

Tools needle tool a pointed tool used to score and cut clay pieces.

loop tool a tool with a loop at the end used for “scooping” out excess clay

Modeling tool A tool used to smooth, mold, and move the clay into its desired form

kiln an oven used to fire clay Our projects will be fired at ~2000 degrees

Bisqueware clay that has been fired once.

glaze a glass-like paint used to cover the surface of a piece of clay. Becomes glossy and shiny in the kiln. used to decorate, strengthen, or waterproof a piece of clay

ADDITION IN CLAY How would we get these additions to stay fixed to our clay box?

RELIEF (SUBTRACTION) IN CLAY

What tools could we use to subtract clay from the surface? Needle tool Loop tool

Template A piece of paper or cardboard that shows what size and shape your clay piece will look like We cut around it so that clay slabs are all the exact same size
