    A1: Speaking/Listebing standards so often are left behind yet are such a natural way to integrate in all the new arts standards at all grade levels #K12ArtChat
  • smARTisteacher Jan 11 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A1: Ummm... speaking/listening have standards? Yikes! #K12ArtChat
  • MiniMatisse Jan 11 @ 9:39 PM EST

  • mdeHSD Jan 11 @ 9:41 PM EST
    Lots of focus on speaking standards💫 #k12artchat Need more focus on teaching listening. Eager to hear ideas via the arts!
  • GrundlerArt - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:41 PM EST
    A1: not as familiar as I should be - elementary TEKs here in TX #k12ArtChat
  • WallerArt Jan 11 @ 9:41 PM EST
    A1: ? Not familiar with them. Also- happy that others are in the same boat. #k12artchat
  • joycschultz Jan 11 @ 9:41 PM EST
    #K12ArtChat A1 I am not familiar with it but I do require and support presenting and listening as a big piece of my studio practice.
  • susanrileyphoto Jan 11 @ 9:41 PM EST
    A1: There's so many pathways with S/L Standards. Things like diverse media, visual presentations, etc. #K12ArtChat
  • Artguy76 - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:42 PM EST
    There are so many ways to add that speaking piece into their art. App voice overs, or Avatars w/ digi voices. #K12ArtChat
    In reply to @LizArtsyFartsy1, @AKoonlaba
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 9:43 PM EST
    A1 Very. I developed an approach to help students authentically engage art that was built around the #CCSS-speaking and listening & ELA standards. Proves arts are academic and provides an excellent way for Ss of all ages to think about and discuss art meaningfully #K12ArtChat

    #K12ArtChat A2 I find S/L is a life skill and very empowering for students to clarify their voice.

    #k12artchat
    In reply to @trevorabryan
  • alzaccariello Jan 11 @ 9:45 PM EST
    A2 they basically provide a vehicle for students to express themselves effectively and be part of a conversation where hey can ultimately learn more about themselves and the world. Builds confidence and maturity #k12artchat
  • k12artchat - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:46 PM EST
    A2: Real life practical application - use of voice to share with others not just visually but in all forms #K12ArtChat
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 9:47 PM EST
    A2 Teaching Ss how 2 listen & exchange ideas effectively is so important. The arts foster joy & connection & are perfect for launching meaningful conversations. The arts help us comprehend our own lives-exploring and sharing ideas w/others helps grow our understanding #K12ArtChat
  • susanrileyphoto Jan 11 @ 9:47 PM EST
    A2: S/L offers us all opportunities to communicate and reflect simultaneously and in multi-modalities. That's so needed in a time when shouting seems to get the most attention. #K12ArtChat
  • WallerArt Jan 11 @ 9:47 PM EST
    I’m all about a cool learning experience! I might not have much to add but I’m reading all about it. #k12ArtChat
    In reply to @smARTisteacher
  • joycschultz Jan 11 @ 9:47 PM EST
    #K12ArtChat A2 students have a lot to say with visual language- we need to cultivate the vernal&written language.

    Like what others are saying? Follow them & grow your PLN! #K12ArtChat
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 9:48 PM EST
    A2 would be super hard if you didn't have much background knowledge on these standards. So, I'm going to jump in here...I want them to be able to communicate with each other and work together to solve artistic problems. So, I often pair a S/L standard...(1 of 2) #k12artchat
  • art_cathyhunt Jan 11 @ 9:48 PM EST
    A2 Efdexrive and confident communication takes many forms. Choice/diversity of approach and medium is an important part of this #K12ArtChat
  • Artguy76 - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:48 PM EST
    A2: Listening allows you to sometimes find purpose in your art. Like Design Thinking. #K12ArtChat
  • mdeHSD Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A2: Art of Listening... #k12artchat
  • MattCartgolf Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A1- speaking & listening are skills we build upon, from Day 1 of school, thru group projects that help to evolve 'a class' into a 'community of learners'. From strangers at the beginning of school to being friends who are active in each other's learning 😁#k12artchat
    In reply to @AKoonlaba
  • thelmagrace Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A1 is this on the a national Art standards?...Feeln dumb tonight 🤔 #k12artchat
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A2 Great Arts education helps students learn to effectively share ideas. Discussing art meaningfully and purposefully helps students learn this-helps them see different ways to communicate. #K12ArtChat
  • smARTisteacher Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A2: Speaking & listening skills are crucial to communication. Communicating effectively is important in life and art! #K12ArtChat
  • Artguy76 - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:49 PM EST
    Glad you are with us tonight! #K12ArtChat
    In reply to @art_cathyhunt
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 9:50 PM EST
    A2 like "Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions and carry out assigned roles." as we discuss a work of art and I help them set parameters for their discussions. It really helps them focus on the art AND they are learning how to communicate at the same time. (2 of 2) #k12artchat
  • shinebrite71 Jan 11 @ 9:50 PM EST
    A2- they emphasize skills that our students are going to have to use moving forward in every facet of public, private, and professional life #K12ArtChat
  • alzaccariello Jan 11 @ 9:50 PM EST
    A2 I use Socratic seminar once a quarter to discuss a controversial art topic. This uses S/L skills #k12artchat
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 9:51 PM EST
    Q3 (Consider this standard for this question...maybe it will help: Pose and respond to specific questions by making comments that contribute to the discussion and elaborate on the remarks of others.) #k12artchat
  • susanrileyphoto Jan 11 @ 9:51 PM EST

    In reply to @art_cathyhunt
  • art_cathyhunt Jan 11 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A2 also important from a well-being point of view - we all want/need to be heard. We communicate in a range of over, subtle, verbal and non-verbal ways. #K12ArtChat
  • joycschultz Jan 11 @ 9:53 PM EST
    #k12artchat A3 collaborations are useful to utilize both S/L. Can’t have one without the other.
  • art_cathyhunt Jan 11 @ 9:53 PM EST
    A3 Standards should be used to guide thinking, the development of lesson objectives, highlight needs... but then we work w pedagogical approaches that leverage relationships. #K12ArtChat
  • susanrileyphoto Jan 11 @ 9:53 PM EST
    A3: You could use this work: https://t.co/Bkd4hzOeRT to explore https://t.co/TQ0a5S3LVT.8.2 that analyzes social/political/commercial motives. #K12ArtChat
  • alzaccariello Jan 11 @ 9:55 PM EST
    A3 It’s like a chain. Ss can’t just formulate their thoughts ahead of time they have to connect them to what someone else has said. This in itself is a skill and like all new brain activity builds new pathways which of course helps with art #k12artchat
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 9:55 PM EST

  • mdeHSD Jan 11 @ 9:56 PM EST
    A3: I walked into a G2 classroom last year and a writing station had various famous works of art as prompts. Would have been cool to see if activity extended into speaking and listening opp. Not many means of constructed open expression anymore. #k12artchat 😟
  • Artguy76 - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:56 PM EST
    A3: some of my 4th grs explaining why they made their pieces of functional furniture. (Purpose) #K12ArtChat

  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 9:57 PM EST
    Here's a guest post on my blog that I wanted to share. It sort of just describes the S/L standards and explains importance #k12artchat
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 9:57 PM EST
    A3 The Arts are totally underutilized as a means to teach academic concepts/skills. The arts foster the meaningful cognition that is necessary to perform well academically. Discussing Visual texts can help ALL Ss engage many state standards-Below is a simple argument: #K12ArtChat

    A2- Speaking & Listening Standards are Huge, especially for those who would otherwise not share out, verbally, or communicate in any way. #k12artchat
    In reply to @AKoonlaba
  • mdeHSD Jan 11 @ 9:59 PM EST
    A3, part II 3rd graders responded to art in non fiction picture book on MLK, jr. Then I let them hear his voice and see the actual statues represented in book. Kids were in awe. Good convo. Special moment! #k12artchat
  • smARTisteacher Jan 11 @ 9:59 PM EST
    A4: *Discussing essential questions during the ideation process before beginning of a project. *Reviewing & discussing sketches before starting a work. *Group critic analyzing and reflecting on the process after a work is complete. #k12artchat
  • shinebrite71 Jan 11 @ 10:00 PM EST
    A3- speaking/listening and visual art standards/skills should flow back and forth in class naturally. Responding/discussing process/products. Using s&l standards to foster concept development and respect of differing opinions. #K12ArtChat
  • GrundlerArt - Moderator Jan 11 @ 10:00 PM EST
    A3: Respond to questions about works of art - the standard can guide planning for an exploration of art. Great teaching is crafting great questions #k12ArtChat
  • alzaccariello Jan 11 @ 10:01 PM EST
    A4 writing artist statements, writing reflections on their work regularly even though these are written they help develop Ss thoughts so when it comes time for them to share verbally they have their thoughts already formulated. #k12artchat
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 10:01 PM EST
    Q5 Any ideas? #k12artchat
  • Artguy76 - Moderator Jan 11 @ 10:01 PM EST

    A3 Use this simple visual from The Art of Comprehension to help students discuss visual texts. It can also be used by #ELA teachersto discuss written text. It’s simple but effective. Easily applied to fine arts and illustration #K12ArtChat
  • atragg Jan 11 @ 10:02 PM EST
    A4: turn & talk, pair share, table discussion- so much easier for some Ss to participate when modeled by their peers #K12ArtChat
  • alzaccariello Jan 11 @ 10:02 PM EST
    A4 I really like to use sentence frames any time we are having a class discussion. This gives the students who need it support. When I look at the artwork I see..., I think that this artwork is about..., this artwork reminds me of... #k12artchat

    A6- providing authentic opportunities to build skills in the area. Shouldn't feel out of place or like an arbitrary add on to the art content and curriculum #K12ArtChat
  • joycschultz Jan 11 @ 10:08 PM EST
    #k12artchat A6 Artists often don't want to be the center of attention but they have a lot to say. The art work often is the passageway to advance the verbal/ listening skills- confidence.

  • MattCartgolf Jan 11 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A3- Imagine an Art Class where students come in, get to work & the teacher says nothing to them. How are students to know what to do next, or if they are doing a good job, or how to get improve? High quality assessed feedback = higher standards of art work #k12artchat
    In reply to @AKoonlaba
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A6 Discussing art helps us comprehend our lives. Don’t just learn about the art make sure students learn from the art and through the art. This is how conversation will soar and voices will be empowered. Make the art personal so it can suppprt student dreams. #K12ArtChat

    A6: The most important thing about using art to address S/L standards is: Ss need to learn how to communicate effectively in all subjects/areas - just do it! #K12ArtChat #elachat

    A6 art is awesome. fun and engaging. It accesses another level of human expression that can’t always be communicated in words. People interpret art differently and it’s a window into their own mind and life. Helps us build deeper relationships and bond with others #k12artchat

    A3- Imagine an Art Class where students come in, get to work & the teacher says nothing to them. How are students to know what to do next, or if they are doing a good job, or how to improve? High quality assessed feedback = higher standards of art work #k12artchat

    @AKoonlaba thanks for a great chat and a great topic. Has helped me generate more ideas for my teaching goals this year. What types of pd opportunities do you like to participate in? #k12artchat
  • trevorabryan Jan 11 @ 10:27 PM EST
    At least if the standards are implemented WELL they lead to this. Too often I think the standard is being taught instead of just hit through the process of doing meaningful, engaging, exploratory work. #k12artchat

    A6 I think the most important consideration for me is that talking isn't bad. The need for social interaction is human. We can harness that for deeper levels of learning in art. #k12artchat
  • AKoonlaba Jan 11 @ 10:28 PM EST
    Thanks everyone for this amazing chat. I learned so much. I hope you will keep in touch! #k12artchat
  • atragg Jan 11 @ 10:28 PM EST
    Yes, I know many art Ts do not want to teach ELA standards, but the fact is that you DO teach it- in any subject! Make it authentic and meaningful for Ss to dive deeper into art they are viewing and creating. #k12artchat #elachat
