Start of Semester
1. How do you envision using art in your classroom?
In my classroom I envision myself using art as a way to help the students become more familiar with the work. I hope to incorporate projects in subjects such as science, social studies, and math so that these experiences become more authentic and hands on for the students. I know students are capable of learning material by just going over it and practicing but I think if they did an art project to tie everything together it would become more concrete and easier for them to call upon in the future.
2. What do you know about integrated learning / integration?
When multiple content areas are integrated into each other it provides a more holistic experiences and students can see how the information they are learning can be used in a different setting other than while in the classroom. It can make learning more enjoyable and the students can create connections to help them learn the way that they feel most comfortable.
3. Rate your comfort level in making art, and discuss.
Uneasy 1 2 3 4 5 Comfortable
-While I enjoy making art I do not feel like I am very creative and my ideas do not always come together the way I had pictured.
I would rate myself at a 2. While I enjoy making art I do not feel I am a very crafty/cute person. The images I picture in my head do not always end up on the paper the way I had imagined.
4. Rate your comfort level in analyzing and talking about art, and discuss.
Uneasy 1 2 3 4 5 Comfortable
-Although I took art appreciation, I do not feel that I have a strong grasp or am comfortable sharing my interpretations of an art piece out loud.
I would rate my comfort level in analyzing and talking about art as a 1. Even though I have taken Art Appreciation/Writing Intensive I feel that it was so long ago and I do not do this on a regular basis. I feel like what I see or may feel when looking at art may be something completely different than what is intended to be portrayed.
