Clay Chocolate Pots

This week, Eagle Class have designed and made a Maya chocolate pot from clay. They followed each step perfectly to create their pot with its own lid and handle.

They then used their design ideas to imprint their pot with a pattern. All of the children had one design which included the Maya glyph for cacao and some have managed to draw this onto their pots which looks brilliant!

Once they have dried, they will be ready for the kiln and then we shall spend some time painting and glazing them. I can’t wait to see what they look like once they are finished. Here are some photos of the children making their pots yesterday…
