I finally figured out that my blogs were not publishing because I wasn't pressing the the publish button in the top corner after clicking on  publish live. but anyways, here is my Quarter Report!

Please describe your efforts towards participation and leadership. Did you take care to clean well? Mention if you were attentive at the beginning of class every day.

I believe that I participate a lot in class. Not only do I work on my projects everyday in class, but I also take time to help the begining students, especially on the wheels when throwing and footing. The one thing I think I could work on the most would be how attentive I am in the beginning of class on a daily basis, I will try to socialize less when Mrs. Heideman is giving instruction in the beginning of class because what she is telling the class is important to listen to.

 

How often do you use the pass?  Are you on task every day and all period? How social are you versus how much work do you do? How closely do you meet assignment deadlines?

I hardly ever use the bathroom pass, I think I may have used it twice the entire quarter.  I believe that I am on task for the most part every day, I'm always working or helping another student who is having difficulty. I do socialize in class but not enough to distract me from getting my work done. I do however have difficulty getting my assignments turned in by deadlines. I should probably work on being a little less picky on what I turn in because I do tend to be a perfectionist about my work. But on the bright side what i do turn in is always my best work :)

 

Today I footed a bowl I threw yesterday, its probably one of my favorite projects to date, its really big compared to what I usually make which is pretty cool.  I also threw a  bowl today, its going to be my wheel altered project, I messed with the lip to add the altered effect.  It  looks a little bit like a flower. Anyways, thats all I've got for now, check in

Just checking back in! I've decided im going to wait  to glaze my set of three until all three pieces make it out of the kiln, which will hopefully be soon. I threw a vase yesterday and footed it today, descent project, it will probably be my choice wheel project.

Just a quick update on my projects,

I've been working diligently in class everyday, I've been on the wheel almost everyday this week meaning lots of projects to keep track of! I threw a bowl today, its probably one of my favorite projects yet, really solid piece, it's going to be part of my set of three (mug, bowl and plate). I also footed my mug and t I'm going to try and upload pictures of some of my projects when the get finished, hopefully within the next week. Check back soon :)

I dont have much time to write but attached are my latest assignments including my wide project and the first of my set of three which is a vase. I just glazed my first project which i will upload a picture of later tonight, check back in later this weekend
