Room 14's fish tiles

Room 14 are studying Marine Reserves. We made clay fish tiles.


We looked at the different shapes and patterns on fish.



We rolled the clay so that it was even in thickness.


Next we drew the outline of our fish.



We cut around the outline.



We used wire netting, material and pinecones to make the patterns on the fish.



We are leaving our fish to dry for two weeks and then we will fire them in the kiln.



We plan to use glaze our fish.

This means that we will again fire the tiles.

Please return to see our finished tiles.
