My third graders read the book "The Pot That Juan Built" and are finishing their coil pots. I LOVE coil pots but with 7 groups of 3rd graders - that's a LOT of pots to keep track of so...
Each class uses a different shaped base so I can differentiate if they get mixed up (and trust me - they always do!).
Every student gets a construction paper shape in a different color - they use this as both a name tag and a template to cut around for their base.
So we have yellow circles
gray squares
pink triangles
light blue rectangles
white ovals
beige diamonds
long tan rectangles.
Glad I don't have EIGHT groups...
Turning around with circles, like Sonia Delaunay
