Ocarina Workshop


Before bringing ocarinas to my ceramics 8 class as a project, I needed to make sure this project was a good choice, since it is a rather advanced project. To ensure I would be able to teach the class and have enough time to build the ocarinas in one fell swoop, I decided to volunteer my time for an enrichment day; enrichments are offered in one hour blocks. If I was able to teach a workshop on ocarina construction and iron out any problems, I knew I could teach the eight graders.

After looking at different ocarina building methods, and lots of trial and error, I designed a plastic template specially to ensure ease of construction and speed of clay distribution.

Below, a few photos of my ocarina workshop, attended by 12 senior students, and a photo of all the grade eight ocarinas ready to fire. And all of them played music!
