A Lesson on Coil Pots from TeachPottery

This blog includes multiple pages. Links to the different pages can be seen above. The purpose is to bring to you a complete package of lesson plans, media for use in with the lesson, advice for incorporating technology into the lesson and everything else that you might need as a teacher to bring this lesson to your students.

I am testing out this format in contrast with the format on my website TeachPottery.net 

Please try it out and leave comments if you have some thoughts about it. I will also be sending out surveys about it if you are on my mailing list. If you aren't, leave your email and I'll send a short survey to you, too. Your opinion matters to me.

This package is for teaching a unit or a lesson on the incredible ceramic art of two ancient North American civilizations, the Mimbres and the Moundbuilders. It has historical context, current ceramic potters, enrichment activities and studio activities. 

The two videos below are media that can be used with the Basic Mimbres Bowls Lesson Plan. I hope your taste will be whetted to see more and use some of these resources.

Please leave comments on what you feel needs improving and what you would like more of or anything else you would like to communicate. Enjoy.
