If I walked into your high school art classroom what would the atmosphere be? Are the students quiet and working? Are they discussing their projects with each other? Are they working and talking and having fun? Or do they do all of the above and it depends on what day I walk in? :)What do your classes look like? | ||||

I work at an alternative high school & will be teaching an art history course next quarter. My students tend work very slowly & I don't think I will be able to get as much into the curriculum as I would like. Think 4-6 full lessons If you only had 9 weeks with a group of students, what eras/ artists would you focus on? | ||||

Hello! I am about to do a Frida Kahlo project with my elementary aged kids. I was wondering what resources other teachers have used to introduce her life and work? I have the book 'Frida' by Jonah Winter. I was thinking, also, a video? But much of what is out there is too explicit for elementary school. Ideas? | ||||

We use O, S, N, I, and U for specials grades with most students receiving a Satisfactory. Our new online grading system automatically assigns a percent, which has caused parents some confusion and concern over grades when they see a percent in the high 80's.
