LESSON PLANS

AMACO has a full set of lesson plans that are free!!! Each one includes a section on Lesson goals and objectives, background preparation, a glossary of terms, supplies needed, optional supplies, equipment needed, full instructions, additional suggestions and follow-up ideas. I'd also be happy to snail mail some or all of them to you if downloading is a problem. Request a few or all of them. Just send me an e-mail to claygirl@brackers.com and tell me which ones you want.

http://thegateway.org Has tons of lesson plans! You can search by grade level & content area!

The following lesson plans are ones that I have created myself. As I finish writing up each lesson plan, (because most of them exist only in my head at this point, in various stages of creation) the titles will become links to downloadable pdfs. However, don't expect them to be quite as fancy as the AMACO lesson plans listed above.

Where the Wild Things Are: A literary lesson (.pdf)

The Potter: A fun & inspirational lesson for elementary school students

The Magic of Ceramics: Junior High and High School lesson ideas from the book of the same name
