Does anyone teach ceramics? I'm looking to buy new wheels with the last of my budget ($2500) but I need 4-5 of them. I want to buy Brent wheels b/c they're the best but need something more economical.

Shimpo Lite wheels have worked for my middle school students. I've had them for about a year and they've worked well!

I bought some "table top" ones on amazon a couple of years ago for $280 each. I do not remember the brand but they are red and white ones. At 20" tall they are actually too big for table top, but I bought some small stools and we hover over them like a full size wheel and they actually work great!

I've been very happy with my Clay boss wheels by Speedball. Virtually the same as a Brent in construction. Only down side is plastic wheel head. However just keep metal trim tools off of it and it is a non issue. Also found wood stools that are the perfect height for these wheels. Believe they were from Nasco or Sax. The Shimpo's do have an economy line that is very nice. Imo, I would stay away from table top models. My studio choice is Brent cxc.

I’ve been at my company for 8 months. I just found out another designer who has been here for several years gets an annual bonus at the end of the fiscal year. I have never been told about a bonus and haven’t gotten one yet for the previous fiscal year that ended In July. Should I have been told I get a bonus when I signed on or are they typically a surprise?

I've been working out since early 2020 6x/ week and lost ~30lbs. However, I didn't adjust my eating -only switched to an intermittent fasting schedule (eat between 12-8pm). Now, I'm trying to focus on better eating. I struggle with sweets - If it's around me, I need it all lol and Uber eats is a weakness bc of all the dessert places! My meals are relatively balanced so not a major issue...

I've heard of intuitive eating but sounds a bit fluffy (lol) - other tips? What has worked for you? Help!!

We talk about keeping rigor in our classes, however I’m finding my HS students need straight forward instructions. Most students are struggling to meet their Maslow’s needs that to use higher Blooms seems like a stretch. How are you all supporting creativity and originality in artwork when kids are struggling to keep afloat?
