She proposed the development of different essential tools for the workshop.

As well as images that portray the process of extraction, grinding, drying, and cooking of clay as practiced in the community of Zarca water. Finally, clay pieces were elaborated where it was exemplified and clarified the exercises that children must perform each time they attend the workshop.
