This document provides information about an upcoming ceramics unit for 7th and 8th grade students. It includes standards, project requirements, sculpture terminology, step-by-step instructions, and examples of ceramic boxes and jars. Students will create a lidded ceramic box with specific requirements such as textured sides, a jagged-cut lid, thin even walls, and feet. The document outlines terminology like additive and subtractive techniques and provides worksheets to help students prepare for their project and final exam.
Ceramics involves shaping and firing clay. Key steps include kneading clay to remove air, "slipping" clay pieces by scoring and applying slip to attach them, and firing in stages from greenware to bisque. Clay moves from plastic to leather-hard to bone-dry. Building methods include slab, coil, and wheel throwing. Decoration happens through application, incising, impressing, rolling, and piercing at different clay stages. The project requires a 6x6 inch tile representing an artist or culture using various techniques and glaze finishes.
This document outlines Project 1a which requires students to construct paper and wood cubes that are each 12 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches. The objectives are to explore building materials, understand how material properties influence design, and recognize how a material's inherent qualities impact the design process. Students must design and build one cube from paper materials and one from wood. There will be two reviews - a working model review in Week 4 and a final project review in Week 6. The cubes will be graded on craftsmanship, modularity, adherence to dimensions, and design/ingenuity.

in Art of the Science V4 we learned of the Process of Assimilation which further develops the Product Line, and set a benchmark to prepare for it. But in this paper we develop the concepts about Assimilation starting with the 'Assimilart' application for small form Digital Products. The Other types of Assimilation will be further developed in V2. This Emulation is part of the Six Layer Glass Process. The Origination Cost and Margin Association is Discussed in V3.
If you're working on a large project with a lot of hands in the CSS pot, then your CSS may be doomed to code bloat failure. Scalable and modular CSS architectures and approaches are the new hotness and rightfully so. They provide sanity, predictably and scalability in a potentially crazy coding world. This session will give an overview of some the most popular approaches, including OOCSS, SMACSS, CSS for Grownups, and DRY CSS as well as discussing some general principles for keeping your CSS clean, optimized, and easy to maintain.
