   I think that there might be a lesson to learn about student projects.

CLASS PROJECT GONE WRONG



An elementary school class started a class project to make planters to

take home to their parents.



They wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so they

decided to use cactus plants.



The students were given green-ware pottery planters in the shape of clowns

which they painted with glaze.



The clown planters were professionally fired at a class outing so they

could see the process.



It was great fun!



They planted cactus seeds in the finished planters and they grew nicely,

but unfortunately, the children were not allowed to take them home.



The cactus plants were removed and small ivy replaced them and the

children were then allowed to take them home instead.



The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea at the time!
