Reflection: This was my first time ever making a peace like this. It was really fun to make. It was fun to take the sponge to it and make it smooth. The hard part of making this peace was rolling it out to the right size. The first time I made it, it was way too thin.

Reflection: I did not really like making this peace. It was really hard for me to make the coils small, and the top of the peace was the worst. I would like to make another peace like this in the future and make it better. Overall, it turned out okay.

Reflection: I thoughtthis peace would noto turn out the best. beacuse i thoght that i made my pinch pot to big for the handle to acatch onto. but it turned out ok. the hardest part of this peace was the hanble, my pinch pot was to thick so i had a hard time putting the handle on it would not stay on.

Reflection: This was my first time making a lidded box. I wish the sides of the box had turned out better, but it's okay. I realized I needed to smooth out the box more, but I didn't. I like the colors it ended up with, and I will probably make another one if I get the chance.

Reflection: I had a lot of fun making these plates. It took about six plates to be perfect. The glaze that I used turned out to be cool. The first plate was the best one; the other ones did not turn out as good. I am definitely going to do this again.
