teaching elem-level kids

About a year or two ago there was a thread on teaching ceramics classes to
elementary school kids. I can't figure out how to access and search the
archives from the CeramicsWeb page so my questions are:
1) Does anyone know how to search the Clayart Archives for a specific
subject such as the one listed above and/or

2) Any suggestions? I go into a public school classroom for 50 minutes.
I wheel in my cart with my clay and supplies and go to work. We save,
glaze and fire several projects per session. What are some projects other
teachers have given to their K-5 classes?

Thanks, Paul in SF

Dear Paul,
We have a classes for kids at our University. I love looking at their
work and taking my college students in to see the pieces.
Some projects are animals, whistles, masks. They are very lively.
I'll talk with the teacher and get back to you.
