Geist Elementary School – WHEEL THROWING CERAMICS
Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester
This class introduces students to the potters’ wheel. Students will learn to throw a variety of functional and sculptural forms based on the cylinder (cups, cones, vases, bowls etc.) Students will create sets of objects as well as unique forms as they develop concepts, personal voice, and technical skills. This is a rigorous course, and students cannot progress until basic skills are mastered. Focus, grit, and practice outside of class are integral to be a successful wheel thrower. Prerequisite: Foundations of Art and Design (or Intro 2D or Intro 3D for 10, 11, 12).
