Clay Ornaments -- Pridham Studio

Dear Parents/Guardians,

The students are working on a Folk Art landscape.   They have created and are coloring patterns in with crayon and will need to paint over them.  If possible, we are asking students to bring in disk paint sets that they hopefully still have from past years (students from Mrs. Doeleman’s class had them last year) and 8 or 10 bright coloured crayons (hopefully still have somewhere around your home). If you do not still have these materials, please do not worry.  If enough students can bring in some materials, we will share accordingly.  The project will be completed this week if enough supplies arrive.  The students have worked extremely hard and we look forward to seeing their work completed.

So far, approximately 13 students have brought in their $3.50 for the clay project at Pridham Studio.  Pridham Studio needs the payment before we start to offset the cost of the clay they are providing. The sooner we can collect the money for the project, the sooner we can get started on it.  Since this process can be quite extensive (time for rolling out, cutting, drying, kiln firing, glazing & another kiln firing) it is hoped that we can start this project this upcoming week.  Otherwise, there will be no guarantee that we will be able to complete this project for Christmas.    

If the majority students have not sent in their money by Wednesday, we will likely have to cancel this art project.  If there are any financial concerns, please let me know.

Thanks,

Mr. Blick (Grade 5 Teacher)
