We will be presenting a lesson on creating maracas using clay! In this lesson we will dive into how to create the base maraca shape from simple pinch pots, and how to manipulate the shape and add additional details to transform it into something new. This lesson can easily be differentiated for a variety of skill levels, and includes excellent cross- curriculum connections to science as we explore how the size and shape of our maracas affects the sound they create. Each participant will receive our slides presentation and resources for this lesson, as well as the opportunity to create their own clay maraca.
