Objectives:
I can demonstrate that I understand how to create a 3D sculpture from clay
I can demonstrate that I can attach clay using scoring and slip
I can demonstrate that I understand the difference between real and implied texture
I can create a free standing and stable sculpture
I can demonstrate how to add details using various tools
Vocabulary:
3D: Anything that has length, width, and depth
Freestanding: the dragon is able to stand on its own
Score- creating lines going in two different directions such as hashtags in clay to attach two pieces together (first step in the score, slip, squeeze process)
Slip- really wet clay that is placed on the scored areas before squeezing two pieces of clay together to join them (second step in the score, slip, squeeze process)
Squeeze: pressing the clay pieces together until the water bubbles come out (the final step in the process to attach two pieces of clay together)
Touchpoints: Where the clay touches another part of the clay; strengthens both pieces
Real Texture: Texture that you can both see and feel
Implied Texture: Texture that has been added by drawing or pressing into the clay; it is not real and you can see it but it does not feel as it looks

Wisconsin State Art Standards Covered:
Creating
Cr1 – Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas: designing a dragon that can stand independently.
Cr2 – Organize and develop artistic ideas and work: demonstrating scoring, slip, squeeze, touchpoints, and adding real or implied texture.
Cr3 – Refine and complete work: improving craftsmanship, checking balance, stability, and detail.
Presenting
Pr6 – Convey meaning through presentation: final sculpture demonstrates skill and is displayed for critique or exhibition.
Responding
Re9 – Apply criteria to evaluate artistic work: students evaluate texture, stability, craftsmanship, and effectiveness of attachments.
Connecting
Cn10 – Relate knowledge and personal experiences to artmaking: dragons as symbols in different cultures, myths, or personal fantasy themes.
National Art Standards Covered:
Creating
VA:Cr1.1.7a – Apply methods to generate ideas (planning how a dragon can be free-standing).
VA:Cr2.1.7a – Demonstrate persistence in developing skills with materials, tools, and techniques (scoring, slipping, squeezing, using touchpoints).
VA:Cr2.2.7a – Demonstrate safe and effective use of materials, tools, and equipment (clay tools, proper joining).
VA:Cr3.1.7a – Reflect on and refine artwork in progress (stability, texture refinement).
Presenting
VA:Pr6.1.7a – Analyze how artwork presented in a space (classroom gallery) influences understanding.
Responding
VA:Re9.1.7a – Apply criteria (texture realism, craftsmanship, stability) to evaluate artwork.
Connecting
VA:Cn10.1.7a – Create art reflecting personal interests or cultural influences (dragon myths, fantasy creatures).
