The Potters of San Marcos: The Clay and the Pot and Coil Bowl Demonstration

There are some excellent short videos on the web that are perfect for showing to your students, but how do you do that when video sites are blocked? I have found a very simple solution. There ios a great little Web 2.0 tool out there called Miro which you can simply download to your computer. It helps you to search out videos that suit your needs and download them to your computer. You can then use Miro to show the videos at school. Here's the link, https://www.miroguide.com/

This short video is an excellent introduction to the traditional hand-building method of coil. It is only a little over 2 minutes long. What a great way to start your class.





This narrated slide show is less than 4 minutes long and is an overview of how to create a coil bowl.
