Making things we use

Making things we use	play_circle pause_circle
Pots	play_circle pause_circle
This potter makes: plates, cups, bowls, vases and lots of different pots, of course.	play_circle pause_circle
He uses clay and he has a special wheel.	play_circle pause_circle
1- First he cuts the clay. It is heavy and sticky.	play_circle pause_circle
2- Then he pushes and pulls the clay. He makes a large, smooth lump.	play_circle pause_circle
3- Next he throws the clay onto the wheel. He throws the clay hard because it must stick onto the wheel.	play_circle pause_circle
4- He makes the wheel turn slowly and he shapes the clay.	play_circle pause_circle
5- Gradually, he turns the wheel faster. Carefully, he pulls up the sides of the pot.	play_circle pause_circle
6- When the pot is a good shap the potter cuts it off the wheel.	play_circle pause_circle
7- He dries the pot slowly. Sometimes he bakes his pots in a big oven.	play_circle pause_circle
8- Finally, he paints the pot.	play_circle pause_circle
The pot is shiny and it has beautiful colours.	play_circle pause_circle
Potters also make coil pots and pinch pots.	play_circle pause_circle
They do not use a wheel to make these pots.	play_circle pause_circle
Cloth	play_circle pause_circle
This weaver is making cloth.	play_circle pause_circle
She is using wool and a loom.	play_circle pause_circle
The threads on the loom go from the top to the bottom.	play_circle pause_circle
The weaver pushes the wool between the threads.	play_circle pause_circle
Baskets	play_circle pause_circle
People all over the world make baskets.	play_circle pause_circle
This woman is weaving reeds together.	play_circle pause_circle
Some people cut long, straight twigs.	play_circle pause_circle
They are not as soft as reeds so they cut the twigs with sharp knives.	play_circle pause_circle
Candles	play_circle pause_circle
Candle makers dip string into hot wax.	play_circle pause_circle
They wax goes cold and hard.	play_circle pause_circle
They do this lots of times and the candle gets fatter and fatter.	play_circle pause_circle
Sometimes they heat the wax then they pour it into metal or plastic moulds.	play_circle pause_circle
The wax cools.	play_circle pause_circle
When the wax is cold and hard, they open the mould and take out the candle.	play_circle pause_circle
Candlelight makes everything look pretty.	play_circle pause_circle
