Wedging and Recycling Clay

Back to the LHS Art Website

Clay preparation is a large part of any pottery or clay work. These two assignments allow students to practice two methods of clay preparation: Recycling clay scrap and wedging clay.

Students get 10 points for correctly wedging a lump of clay for 2 minutes.

Students also get 10 points for recycling a bag of clay for themselves by either using our pug mill or by slaking clay in water, then drying and wedging it on the wedging tables.
