17. Hand Built Fairy Tales Assignment
In the library, or at home you are to research children’s fairy tales or nursery rhymes. I want each person to come up with two different fairy tales or nursery rhymes to choose from. Find the major characters, plot and sketch some illustrations in your sketch book to build in clay. The fairy tale or nursery rhymes written text will be included with the final project. I would like it typed up in a booklet or on a card that will be displayed with the final ceramic piece.
The final clay sculpture will be fairly small in size-(no bigger then 12”x12”x12” please), and will be a single unit- (all pieces attached, no removable parts). I would like detailed plans that include color selections, drawn in your sketch book, before you start. The Sketch book will be a graded assignment before you start- remember you must sketch up 2 ideas.

18. Here is an example of the grade sheet you will get:
Was the piece built with quality craftsmanship? (30pts)
Was the color application done in an appropriate way? (30 pts)
Was the story or synopsis included in the final project and was it nicely done? (20 pts)
