CLAY CAMP FOR KIDS
There is something
magical about children when they are thinking and working creatively.
At Mud Slingers Clay Camp for Kids, they can experiment with a variety
of clay hand building techniques while they learn to think about their
ideas and apply them to the shape
and structure of their creations. We inspire the young people to enjoy
the pride that comes with accomplishment and the joy of working and
cooperating with others.
Spend one week from 9:00 - 11:30 AM at
Mud Slingers Pottery creating hand-built clay items. During this camp,
kids (7-11) will learn to make pinch pots, coiled pots, small sculpted
animals as well as projects with clay slabs. Tools and materials will
be provided. Class is limited to 10 kids on a first come, first served
basis.
New projects will be introduced each day to
demonstrate clay building techniques. Projects will be glazed on
Friday. Pottery will be fired and ready for pick up within two weeks.

The next free Spell to Write and Read Meeting will be:
In Cornelius, Thursday July 16th at 7 p.m. at Beth Thetford's home
These meetings are for anyone:
-interested in seeing SWR and how it works.
-who has bought it and wants help getting started.
-who wants a refresher course.
-using it who would like to share your experiences and ideas with those who are
just starting out.
This is a free meeting and there is absolutely no obligation to buy anything. I
am just a homeschool mom that uses and loves the program. Some friends asked if
I could help them get started using the program and after I did, someone else
asked and I have since done about 75 presentations. I buy the materials in bulk
and so I can sell them at a discount if you decide you want to buy them. I keep
all of the books in stock and can mail them to you later if you want to come
and see how it works before you buy a curriculum. There is no pressure to buy
anything at the meeting!
