I have wanted to explore mold making with my students, particularly since I have all the necessary materials. I found this tutorial to make a mold that you could use to create slab drape style bowls. I am going to give this a try once I get into the classroom!
All these links were screened and found acceptable for middle school students, however since most of them go to outside blogs there might be other material on the blogs that is not acceptable. Please notify me if the link is broken or the content is no longer school appropriate.Plaster molds for pottery forms

Thanks so much for posting my tutorial in your virtual classroom. I wish you the best of luck trying this with your students! It’s easy and fun!
