Trying Something New
The new thing I tried is making pottery. At first, I thought making pottery was easy, but it is hard to do if you don’t practice.
I need to push the clay in to make the shape change and make it look like a cup or bowl, and when your hands are dry, you need to put your hands into a bowl full of water to get your hands wet. At first, I thought I was very successful, but it became harder and harder when I was changing the shape into a cup. Then, I made a small bowl which failed.
I took the failed bowl back home at last. I learnt that patience is everything in making pottery.
Teacher’s comment:
I had a very similar experience! I love pottery so I was keen to try, but it’s harder than you think to make the shape you want.
