Project rubric teapot

1) I succeeded in making my tea pot with clay. With help, it came out very smooth and well put together. 

2) I could work on smoothing the bottom of my teapot out more because it broke in the kiln from the cracks. 

3) Future projects I will try to prevent cracks and breaks. 

4) I give my teapot a 4.5 because even though the bottom broke and it cannot be used as a teapot, it still looks like one and it is extremely smooth and well glazed. 

Project rubric wheel pot

1) I think I successfully built my pot while working on the wheel. I needed some help but overall my pot came out neat and how I wanted.

2) I could have worked on smoothing it out more because some edges are rough.

3) I will work on smoothing my projects out more.

4) Overall I rate my wheel pot a 4.5 because I think I did very well and it looks neater than most of my projects I have done so far. 

Project rubric animal endangered species

1) I think I made the penguin well and got it to actually look like a penguin, as well as picking out the right colors to make it look like a penguin and how I wanted it to look. 

2) I could have worked on making the penguins face better, and slipping and scoring the arms and feet on better so that they didn't fall off when it got fired. 

3) I need to improve on my slipping and scoring so that my projects don't break in the kiln. 

4) I rate my penguin a 4 because even though the arms and legs fell off, it still looks like a penguin and it was well structurized. 

Project rubric coil pot

1) I think I succeeded mostly on the structure of my coil pot. I liked how I designed it.

2) I could have done better at glazing my coil pot because some areas are white. 

3) I will focus on becoming more neat when glazing my projects 

4) I give myself a 4 for my overall grade of my coil pot because I think I built it well even though the paint job could use some work.

Pop art final inspiration

This image inspired me when glazing my teapot because it had bright colors that caught my eye and had drawings and symbols to stand out along with it
