Students are expected to be A.R.T stars while in class. It is their responsibility to come into class with a great Attitude, be Respectful to peers, materials and the classroom, and to always Try Your Best!
Students are expected to take an active part in the art room. It is important for students to understand that the key to a successful art room is keeping materials tidy and sharing the responsibility of the distribution and clean-up process. This system has six essential jobs for students to participate in. Tables are assigned a job for the week and each week the jobs will rotate so that all students share in these procedures. The jobs are as follows:
Supply Distributor
Supply Collector
Table Inspector
Floor Inspector
Artwork Collector
Critique
Students will be able to see what project they are working on by observing the Today's Focus board. On this yellow and purple grid, classes are divided into grade level and examples of each project will be on display. Standards and key vocabulary will be posted as well. In addition, the purple Artistic Word Wall will post a culmination of art vocabulary learned throughout the year.
Upon exiting the room, classes will have an opportunity to reflect on their A.R.T behaviors and assess whether or not the class earned a sticker for their efforts. The above check list is a tangible way for students to see if the group followed the room's expectations. If the class fulfills at least 5 out of the 7 expectations then they earn a sticker. After the class earns 10 stickers, they can earn an incentive such as free time, music, or even choice of seating.
This is going to be such an exciting year of art making at the Glover School. Come back often to see all the amazing art that will be created in Room 12!!!
