Christmas Clay Projects - Nativity Plates. Grade One started these plates a month ago....Christmas is a busy time with the kiln.
With all the projects needing to be completed I have to make sure I schedule it right. We start off rolling out a slice of clay...we want it to be about 1/2 inch thick. We place a lunch sized paper plate on the clay and using a skewer cut out our plate shape. You'll notice I covered the paper plate with plastic wrap....this just ensures it doesn't stick. Lift up your clay and place in the paper plate. The kid's wrote their names and the year along the rim of the plate. They then rolled a snake shape to create their manger. I always tell the kids "scratch, scratch..water, water" to get them to remember the have to score the surfaces they want to stick together as well as add a bit of water. Once the manger was created they worked on Mary and Joseph. I find skewers work the best for cutting shapes...the kids have more control than with plastic tools.

It was always my job to do it, and our grandmother had given us knitted stockings with all of our names on them (so they were very special). Given that I had four younger brothers and thought that the way to get more stuff in your stocking was to have the biggest one, I got creative each year. I spent a lot of time stretching my knitted stocking. If you look at old pictures, you can see each year that the toe got a little longer . . . and longer . . and dangled down below the others.
