Description

CLAY FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. C. Botterill

Softcover, 125 pages with an index and plenty of colour photographs, this handy guide is for anyone wanting to use clay when working with people who have special needs. These needs can range from temporary disabilities (such as blindness) to mental illnesses. The author discusses making methods such as coiling, throwing and modelling, and the various tools and equipment used. A wealth of clearly explained, imaginative projects, are given with step-by-step instructions. The projects give a recommendation for the level of ability needed, and include suggested modifications for any physical difficulties that may be encountered. A book that should be of interest to physiotherapists, teachers, occupational therapists, and all who work with people who have special needs.
