Kaczor Clay Club: Summer

Kaczor Clay Club Empower Hour: Gingerbread Houses
We know that Kurtz families love the Gingerbread Houses Empower Hour, but December is so busy so we are offering Christmas in July! In this consolidated hand-building clay workshop, students will enjoy creating Gingerbread Houses. Beginning with flat clay slabs, students will learn how to shape and attach the slabs into three dimensional forms. They will create texture & embellish their structures to simulate gingerbread, candy & other details found on traditional gingerbread houses. Students will also develop an understanding of clay properties, processes & vocabulary.

Kaczor Clay Club Empower Hour: Forrest Dwellings
We were unable to offer this Clay Club during the school year, so we are offering it this summer! In this consolidated hand-building clay project, students will create dwellings for mythological creatures or amphibians, choosing to create a home for a fairy or a toad! Beginning with flat clay slabs, students will learn how to join two dimensional clay slabs into three dimensional forms. They will create texture and embellish their structures to simulate trees, leaves, knot holes and burrows reminiscent of natural habitats found in woodlands.  Students will also develop an understanding of clay, clay properties and investigate various glazes and application tools and methods

NEW Kaczor Clay Club Empower Hour: Lighthouses
In this consolidated hand-building clay project, students will create lighthouses! Beginning with flat clay slabs, students will learn how to join two dimensional clay slabs into three dimensional forms. They will create texture and embellish their structures to simulate details found on and around lighthouses. Students will also develop an understanding of clay, clay properties and investigate various glazes and application tools and methods.
