Where do you place a piece of pottery when it is being fired?
When pottery is being fired it is placed inside a kiln. Most potters do two firings, one for bisqueware and a glaze firing. Bisqueware is pottery that has been fired to a temperature hot enough to not only evaporate any water in the clay, but also evaporate water at the molecular level thus changing the chemical structure of the clay molecules and creating the hard material you know as ceramic. After bisque firing, pottery is glazed and placed in another kiln. There are many types of glaze firings. Some are done with gas (reduction firing) and some firings are done with electric (oxidation firing). There are also unconventional methods of firing such as Raku, pit firing, and soda firing.
Does ceramic shrink when it dries?
Yes any pottery and ceramic item made of clay shrinks in drying and each firing stage.

What cone is used in greenware firing?
Greenware is usually fired at cone 06 for bisque firing. The glaze firing depends on the maturation temperature of the clay and the glaze.
How is clay used?
Clay is used in all different ways. It is used for dishware, crafting, and pottery.
What is firing clay?

What temperature should you bake eraser clay?
Clay (real clay that comes from the ground, not a plastic product) is fired in a kiln, not "baked in a oven." After is is fired it is called pottery or ceramic. Different types of clay fire at different temperatures and different lengths of time. Most are fired two times: first at a lower temperature and then at a higher temperature with glaze on the surface (sometimes the reverse). Some pottery does not have glaze, and some is only fired once.
What happens to the clay in the kiln?
pottery Answer: you will find glass being fused or heated in kilns.
