CLAY IS IN THE AIR...

NO...LITERALLY!  CLAY IS IN THE AIR!
This week my 2nd & 4th graders are both creating clay projects. As much as we try to clean up after ourselves...clay is just one of those materials that sticks with ya(kind of like glitter...but with less hatred from the art ed community..ha ha ha). I've noticed my students "gliding" across the floor because the clay dust has made the tiles extra slippery.
I walked into my classroom today, and literally could "taste" the clay.  My mouth became dry....I could feel a film of sorts on my eyes(they are a large surface).  The clay is actually in the air!!!!  I've been drinking a ton of tea & water trying to quench my thirst and room that chalky taste from my mouth...but my guess is it will take a few weeks!!!
