US Regions in clay

While on my 6 week stint teaching 3rd grade, and with full access to my own pottery studio, I decided to take the craft into the classroom as we studied our U.S. regions. Each student was given a slab of clay and asked to represent one of the regions. Here was the result prior to firing. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to snag a picture afterwards. I think they did a pretty snazzy job!
