A4. 10min. direct instruction, 15-20 indépendant work, 3-8 clean, 5-10 wrap/reflect. Sounds great, but it is always a struggle. #k12artchat

Artguy76 - Moderator May 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT

That is the way I just feel sometimes with it. #K12ArtChat

It's important that every space allows for explicit teaching, group instruction, and P2P collab + individual reflection #k12artchat

A5. Differently at different levels. Littles need to learn tools and process. Older, it’s mostly within their reach or they ask. #k12artchat

Artguy76 - Moderator May 25 @ 10:08 PM EDT

A5: I allow Ss to work how ever works best for them! (Standing, sitting, laying on the floor) #K12ArtChat

We love how student-centered your environments are. This is exactly what you need in your classroom design #k12artchat

A5. It's important to not 'control' their creative process and support their needs in the workspace #K12ArtChat

  A3: Not enough storage for supplies and Ss wk. Need a system to store/check out materials and keep Ss accountable for them. #k12artchat

determan_k May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT
