The clay must slowly, completely dried. If it is still wet inside of the wall of the pot or sculpture then the resulting steam may cause the piece to explode. One good way to tell if it is dry is to hold it to your face. If it feels cool (from the evaporation), then it is still wet. If you try to dry the piece too rapidly, you can create cracks do to the uneven shrinkage of the clay.
You put clay in the kiln when the clay is at the bone dry stage.
Clay is fired in a kiln.
Firing clay is when a clay is fired in a kiln, this is to make the clay stay strong.
Yes, but if you want to glaze the clay you have to fire it at a low before you glaze it so it is hard - ish.
As long as the clay has not been fired in the kiln, it can be recycled.

Kiln
As long as the clay has not been fired in the kiln, it can be recycled.
An example is in brick-making. Pliable clay is formed into brick-shape, and put into a kiln. When the brick is removed from the kiln, it is a solid brick.
Malleable wax is a pliable material that can be shaped and molded before hardening. Unbaked clay is clay that has not been fired in a kiln, so it remains soft and can be reworked. Baked clay has been fired in a kiln, making it hard and durable. Metal can be shaped and molded when heated, but once cooled and hardened, it retains its shape.
