Elementary school second grade diary handmade water cup

Today, our fourth grade students are going to the Labor and Technology Center, to participate in comprehensive practical activities. The content of today's comprehensive practical activities is: pottery.

We walked into the pottery room, the teacher took the cup he made to show us, said: "Look, this is the teacher made, this is a traditional cup, there is a lid, there is a cup, there is a cup body, there is a handle next to the cup body and the "little ears"! You are going to make a cup like this today. This cup is made in this way, I first demonstrate: first do the bottom, take a piece of clay, and then cross your fingers to flatten, with a larger bottle cap to press up, round the bottom of the cup is done. Once the base is made, we then roll the clay strips, then put six layers of clay around the edge of the base, and then gently flatten the inside and outside of the cup with both hands to make it smooth. Make another lid, and with the rest of the clay strip make two handles to glue it on. Roll four more small balls and glue them to the bottom of the cup for the feet, then put the finished lid on and a cup is ready."

I began to make it as my teacher had taught me, but how I did it, I just couldn't get it right. Undaunted, I started again, and again and again, and finally I made a very beautiful cup. The teacher looked at the cup I made and praised me for it.

Through this practical activities, make me understand: nothing can give up when you fail, you must insist, failure is the mother of success.
