Assuming that there isn't a pug mill, or clay mixer, two things work. one is to
have small slaking buckets for each class, not much water in them, so that they
don't have to deal with the "Yucky, ushee" and they only get 1/2 the ammount tha
they want and much wedge reclain for the rest. a little heartless, but it works
also part of the grade is always clean up and using the reclaim. usually the kid
will learn to rewedge at the end of the period and put away for the next class.
