This curriculum guide for an interdisciplinary pottery unit includes concepts and objectives, student activities, and suggested resources. Introductory material indicates it was designed as a 2-day minicourse for the Mountain School seventh grade at Charles Counts' Pottery Workshop in Georgia but that material is adaptable to a regular school building if it is supplemented by field trips and out-of-doors activities and if teachers experienced in the craft are eager to learn with the students and willing to do some research and careful preparation. Contents include (1) list of math, science, social studies, art, and physical education concepts for the unit; (2) list of objectives: appreciation of one of man's oldest arts, craft experience, academic learning in a new and practical context, increased awareness of local geology, increased awareness of varied talents in the local community; (3) schedule for the 2-day pottery workshop minicourse using group rotation to provide a large number of students with a variety of experiences in a special setting in a short time; (4) background information on pottery; (5) student activities in local clay (finding, preparing, testing), in forming clay, in primitive firing, and in glaze-making; (6) pottery vocabulary glossary, and (7) suggested resources (books, magazines, films).
