Description

Teaching ceramics involves using a lot of subject specific language. This resource is a fantastic starter activity to consolidate the learning of ceramic terms.  Students work in groups to match the word with the definition.  Just print and laminate the sheets, cut them out and then in half and you’re good to go.

There are 16 definitions included but of course you can pick and choose which ones you use:

  • Centring
  • Durable
  • Extruding
  • Firing
  • Greenware
  • Kiln
  • Scoring
  • Leather Hard Clay
  • Potter’s Wheel
  • Bisque Firing
  • Glaze
  • Slip
  • Vitrification
  • Wedging
  • Bisqueware
  • Shrink Factor

There are definition cards for colour theory too.

The Arty Teacher has an inspiring Pinterest board on ceramics.

    Sarah Crowther – The Arty Teacher

    I set up The Arty Teacher because I have a passion for my subject that I want to share with other art teachers around the world.

    I have been a high school art teacher for over 20 years, so I understand what it’s like to be in front of a class of students, often with very different abilities and attitudes.

    I wanted to develop resources that would help teachers to bring out the best in every student in every class. I also wanted to free-up staff from time-consuming lesson preparation to let them focus instead on delivering exciting, motivating, dynamic lessons, supported by excellent resources.
