On Thursday, Sept. 4, 2014, our class met for the first time.
1. Read Aloud: "
Scaredy Squirrel" by Melanie Watt - to prompt thinking about risk-taking in life and in the arts.
2. Draw Right Now: The Shape of Your Day - We drew and interpreted the drawings in triads. We identified PLOs that could be met with this activity and we assessed our own drawings with a Quick Check - a generic self-assessment strategy that can be applied to any activity.
3. We completed a Personal Inventory of Arts Experiences. After this, you divided yourselves into Arts Strength groups, based on your inventories.
4. For next class, read Arts Education K-7 Overview 2010 (Ministry of Education IRP)
5. Next class (#2) we will finalize the assignment choices so that they can be be reflected in the course outline.
Love this class!
