Riverside Visits Medalta by Garrett and Nolin (grade 1)



Today we went to Medalta- we drew some pictures. We were at the kiln and we drew pictures of the base of the kiln. The kiln is where, back in the day, they baked their pottery to make it hard.. We got to make our own pots. We took clay and made it into a ball. Then we stuck our thumbs in the middle and made a hole. After that we pinched the side to make the hole bigger ( like a bowl), we made designs and then we put them on a shelf so they can be fired later.
We also went through the museum. It had this humugis pot. It had a hose in it so that water could come out. They had lots of pots and a butter churn (that's how they make butter). Did you know that they made china. (there was this guy that kept all of the stuff and then donated it to the museum)
