Today Ms Parker took us up to the kiln so that we could fire our clay tiles. This was very exciting and we can't wait to see what they look like when they're finished. We won't be able to see them until Wednesday. Later in the week we will be adding colour to them too!
The inside of the kiln door was a funny texture. It was kind of spongy.
We put our beautiful Autumn leaves on the bottom level.
Next we created some shelves and layered the clay tiles on top of one another.
We had to check to make sure that the shelves were really stable.
Here's a sneak peek at what some of them look like!
One last look before the door gets shut.
Lastly, Ms Parker closed the door and showed us how to turn the kiln on!
We look forward to sharing our clay tiles with you all and bringing them home at the end of term.
It looks like you girls have put a lot of thought and effort into making your tiles, I am looking forward to seeing them when they are finished.
