This lesson plan contains the National Learning Standards for Visual Arts and the Texas TEKS for Elementary, Middle, and High School art teachers. The class will discuss Jorge Wilmot’s methods of ceramics that he learned in Mexico and in Europe. Specifically, the students will learn about the burnishing ceramic styles of Tonalá and Barro Bruñido. Next, the teacher will discuss the processes taken to create both a functional and non-functional ceramic work. Then, the students will begin working on their own ceramic work that is inspired by Wilmot’s Tonalá ceramic process.
