Expect a quiz either Friday, Jan. 11 or Jan. 18

  • Wedging - A method of kneading clay to make it homogenous by cutting and rolling.
  • ViscosityThe state of being thick, sticky, and semifluid in consistency, due to internal friction.
  • Rule of Thumb- Anything thicker than your thumb needs to be hollow, this helps with structural integrity and prevents chemical water
REMINDER- whenever you are absent or miss class, you are responsible for borrowing a classmates' notes, I may not always be able to post them on this website.
