Annette:
First off I would love to see what your student’s work looks
like for the lesson on, “Why Design Is Important: Creating A Space Of Your
Own.” I can visually see the two-dimensional surface of a room, but having each
student adding their own perspective to this assignment would explain a lot for
me. Could you also name what historical artworks you will be showing your
students for this lesson?
I love artwork that helps students reflect on their
self-expression. This is one of
the best ways to keep our students engaged within the classroom from what I
have seen.
Annette, this lesson was very thought out and I hope you do
not mind, but I’m going to add this lesson to my basket of ideas to pull from.
Jon:
On part 1: This was a great way to add classroom management
to your lesson by adding, “Raising your hand if ….”. This is a great way for
you to see if and/or when your students are following the lesson and a great
way to use the checks and balances of understanding to assessment throughout
the lesson. Jon, on your next lesson try to make it for just one grade level, I
think this would help in the planning and the activity. Last, but not least,
young children need to have shorter questions and answers with hands on or visual
clues. In my opinion, this lesson was designed for older aged students, but you
used your young girls and they were too cute. Pull it back next time, if you do
this level again. Simple is the best way to keep their attention.
Jon, this was a great first lesson and you are on your way
to becoming a great teacher.
Here are the links to the National Art Education Standards
and Visual Art Grade Level Expectations for next time.
