CONFERENCE CHAT

[Feb 16 2017, 10:14 AM] theartofed: This is a test! ;) [Feb 16 2017, 10:14 AM] theartofed: Testing today at 10:00... [Feb 16 2017, 10:15 AM] theartofed: I changed the chat platform to put new messages at the TOP instead of BOTTOM. Should be more similar to Facebook and Twitter this way. Better? [Feb 16 2017, 11:15 AM] Guest4596: Hi everyone! [Feb 16 2017, 11:15 AM] theartofed: What does everyone think of that chat? [Feb 16 2017, 11:15 AM] Guest4596: Jessica is much more clear right now. [Feb 16 2017, 11:15 AM] MsBellsArtists: I'm working on my laptop - with my text being entered at the bottom, I think I'd prefer the roll going the other way... I know you just changed it! [Feb 16 2017, 11:15 AM] theartofed: What does everyone think of the After Pass tab on the conference? [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] MsBellsArtists: Easier to put my thoughts together and read at the same time - just my own preference though [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] theartofed: ok, I can see that @msbells [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] theartofed: Who are you btw? [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] MsBellsArtists: Haha Shannon [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] Guest4596: Chatting at the bottom and reading at the top seems a little funny. [Feb 16 2017, 11:16 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Eh, that's a tough question--If I'm just lurking and reading, I want new messages at the top. If I'm participating in the convo, I want them at the bottom. [Feb 16 2017, 11:17 AM] Patricia: I was thinking that too- I expected the most recent to be at the bottom [Feb 16 2017, 11:17 AM] theartofed: hahaha [Feb 16 2017, 11:17 AM] MsBellsArtists: True Tim - it can go either way I think. [Feb 16 2017, 11:17 AM] theartofed: Everyone can see Jessica looks better now with the high res setting [Feb 16 2017, 11:17 AM] MelissaPurtee: Hi everyone! [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Yes, high res setting is significantly better. [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Hey, Melissa! [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] MsBellsArtists: High res is much better [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] theartofed: internet failure testwent well! [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] MsBellsArtists: I also like the after pass tab. Thumbs up. [Feb 16 2017, 11:18 AM] theartofed: We are going to test 'transition timing' [Feb 16 2017, 11:19 AM] theartofed: If eveyone can give feedback on the time between her talking and the video, then between the video and her talking again [Feb 16 2017, 11:19 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Derek, just in that short conversation, I want new messages in the bottom here. the back and forth from top to bottom is difficult to navigate. [Feb 16 2017, 11:19 AM] theartofed: refresh this page [Feb 16 2017, 11:19 AM] theartofed: I think the new messages will show at bottom now [Feb 16 2017, 11:19 AM] theartofed: Is the chat window size ok? [Feb 16 2017, 11:20 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Yes, they are showing at the bottom now. Chat window is okay. [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] theartofed: Is Jessica having any streaming issues at all when we're using the higher res steaming? [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] theartofed: do you notice any cut-outs, etc. that didn't exist when we were on low-res? [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] MsBellsArtists: So we're looking for feedback between Jessica's talking and then how long it takes before the video pops up, and then vice versa? [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] Guest5667: Howdy [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] Guest8742: I just signed in as a guest...that work? [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] theartofed: yes Shannon [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] theartofed: that works, guest! [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] Guest5667: Who has a question?? [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Video was a little slow to load after Jess introduced. She was back on immediately after it was done. [Feb 16 2017, 11:21 AM] HCrockett: That video took a little while to load on my end. I refreshed. That helped. [Feb 16 2017, 11:22 AM] HCrockett: Abby was much faster! [Feb 16 2017, 11:22 AM] MsBellsArtists: Same - a bit of a lag at the start of the video [Feb 16 2017, 11:22 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Abby's video was MUCH quicker. Less than 2 seconds. [Feb 16 2017, 11:22 AM] MsBellsArtists: Yes [Feb 16 2017, 11:23 AM] theartofed: I think the video does't load unless you're on that tab too! If you're on the chat tab, it won't load. Can someone help me verify this? [Feb 16 2017, 11:24 AM] theartofed: We may need to tell users to have them up as separate windows, instead of tabs [Feb 16 2017, 11:24 AM] MsBellsArtists: Yes - mine got a little glitchy when I was on the chat tab as opposed to the conference tab. [Feb 16 2017, 11:24 AM] MsBellsArtists: I had to reload [Feb 16 2017, 11:25 AM] theartofed: I think we're almost done here folks [Feb 16 2017, 11:26 AM] Patricia: Yea, mine has been slow throughout transitions, even Abby's [Feb 16 2017, 11:27 AM] theartofed: we simulated another internet failure [Feb 16 2017, 11:28 AM] theartofed: slack me with any additional tips/advice/ changes!! [Feb 16 2017, 11:28 AM] theartofed: (Derek) [Feb 16 2017, 11:28 AM] Patricia: Can't wait for Sat. Nice work, everyone!! [Feb 16 2017, 11:29 AM] MsBellsArtists: Same!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:09 AM] Cassie Stephens: Thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 11:10 AM] Cassie Stephens: I'm all about the cheese! [Feb 18 2017, 11:10 AM] Glenwood_Art: I DO THE SAME THING! [Feb 18 2017, 11:10 AM] Cassie Stephens: notice the rubberband on my tripod...i'm so hillbillie! [Feb 18 2017, 11:10 AM] Ladyuxen: anything can be a tripod, I used a stack of books once, so a tripod is okay to buy, but anything can be a tripod [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] theartofed: Remember to ask Cassie questions in the conference Q/A (link right below her presentation) - she is answering LIVE! [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Cassie Stephens: agreed, Ladyuxen [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Guest9988: How do you keep the breathing sound out of the video? I have had this happen!?! Ack! - Hollie [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Traci Ann: Cassie do you do record and talk at the same time or go back and add voice overs [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] ArtgalLela: how do you save it so it will play on a pc [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Ladyuxen: I have a monopod that I like to stick into flower pots! lol [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: iphone 6 and 7 great quality videos and imovie app [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Cassie Stephens: You can save videos directly to your desktop [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Emily Long: i have created quite the contraption to hang my phone above a demo.... art teachers are so creative! haha [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: Anyone have a good alternative for us PC users? [Feb 18 2017, 11:11 AM] Cassie Stephens: Yes, I just used my ipad to make a short video and it worked great [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Rachel Albert: I have created tons of videos for my middle schoolers. Feel free to use them, just search for my channel: Rachel Albert [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] KimExpressed: If you create a video does your district own it? In my district it is not my property but theirs. [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: same @cassiestephens [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Cassie Stephens: there are several free resources for PC's...perhaps others can share their faves [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Linda Krecker Brett: For PCs there is something just google it and see what programs are out there. [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Cassie Stephens: Kim...I don't know about that! Mine has never claimed ownership. That sounds super weird. [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: Thanks @cassiestephens [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Carly Stockley: I have a document camera it works alright, would like to add another camera to capture a different view [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Kelsey Pralle: How long do you make these videos? Does it just depend on the information that you are presenting? [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Cassie Stephens: Linda, agreed. [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: imovie is awesome but I have a basic PC, my school is poor poor poor! [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Darla Kendrick: Is the video fuzzy for anyone else? [Feb 18 2017, 11:12 AM] Stephanie Ann: I have a document camera in my room which records, I haven't used it but I asked the technology dept for one and got it the same week. [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] KimExpressed: Yep, they even claim our lesson plans [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Kim Horan Colasante: I have lost sound on cassie's presentation [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Stephanie Ann: @darla, mine is in and out [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] ArtsyGirlCW: I record on ipad, got imovie for ipad for $5 and edit it right there [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Linda Krecker Brett: its good here. [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Sara Baird: @KimExpressed: Yikes, that gets into strange ownership vs. intellectual property gray areas. [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Craig Huffman: Windows has Windows Movie Maker. It comes with it...whatever version. [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Janine Campbell: If you need funding for camera equipment, check out grants. I was able to get $1500 for new cameras from our state tech association two years ago - it was a game-changer! [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Darla Kendrick: Thanks StephanieAnn. Making sure it's not just me [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Cassie Stephens: Craig, thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Ladyuxen: Janine wow! [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @kim and Darla... I had to turn off all other wifi in the house just a suggestion. [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: oh this is really great. Thank you sooo much! [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] KarolWeigert: Anyone have ideas for free software for video editing if you don't have an IPad- our district has Samsung pads. (no explosions so far- hee, hee!) [Feb 18 2017, 11:13 AM] Cassie Stephens: Great resource Janine! [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Linda Krecker Brett: Right Craig. Thanks for the reminder. Movie Maker is not a bad alternative to iMovie [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Carly Stockley: movie maker on windows is easy [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Stephanie Ann: @darla, no problem, I plan on rewatching anyway, I'm thinking its just bc it's live [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] LeslieQ: Hi... I love this idea, Cassie! We have watch your teaching videos!They are fantastic! :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Jlwilliams78Jw: is movie maker and app? [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Janine Campbell: I would also recommend DonorsChoose. They are super fab for funding! I have gotten over $15000 in extra stuff for my classroom in the past 8 years from grants and donors choose. [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Cassie Stephens: thank you, LeslieQ [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Sarah Pascual: I love Cassie! She's fantastic! [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Thanks Craig! [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Margaret McDonald: We have a large ELL population. LARGE! So I would add a caption of all a caption of everything i said to help improve their reading skills. Talking slow i guess. [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Cassie Stephens: Thank you, Sarah! [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Matt Young: LOVE this! Will have to ham it a bit less for HS. [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] TimBogatzAOE: If you want to see some of the videos Cassie has for her students, her YouTube channel is here: https:// www.youtube.com/channel/UCdEo82iK2lzwMqCxBuQmmrQ [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Glenwood_Art: I was talking with a para and she was amazed I use videos for demos [Feb 18 2017, 11:14 AM] Ladyuxen: Escape rooms! Yes I have heard about that. [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] bellafiore3: Cassie I teach a video class thinking I could have my Ss make the videos to introduce content [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Emily Long: I had my principal posing for a figure drawing in a video and my kiddos loved it!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] sspechtart: As a PC user, I hate the Windows Movie Maker is no longer a standard app with the newer OS :-( HAs anyone found something similar? It doesn't seem to be a downloadable app either? [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: oh I like the idea of interviewing other artist. on video [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Stephanie Ann: @Emily, that sounds so fun!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Craig Huffman: 'Show More' is a great screen capture resource, if you do computer graphics. It's free, and SUPER easy to use. [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Janine Campbell: Having kids make videos is awesome! Great idea! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] artlifewithfarr: Investing in your own equipment is important. My feeling is that you should not be beholden to what the district decides is appropriate technology. Windows Movie sucks. [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] KimExpressed: I love the idea of reaching out to living artist [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Emily. Great idea!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Emily Long: thanks Stephanie! It was awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: great idea to video art friends or people you meet! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Guest7134: Love it!!!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:15 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: THank you for the link to Cassie's youtube! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Camille Katherine: Kim, many states have laws about teachers' content. In Missouri, no matter what you create, where you create it, and with what you create it, your district CAN claim what you create as THEIR intellectual property. [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Sara Zallar: I love the idea of digital field trips and introducing students to local artists! Bravo!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Janine Campbell: I love the characters you come up with Cassie! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Matt Young: Screen capture is very helpful if you have a flipped classroom. Especially computer graphics! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] KimExpressed: I think the same for us, Camille [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Lian Brehm: AWESOME HAIR WIG CASSIE! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Beth_Dreyer: Cassie is my spirit animal. [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Emily Long: HAHAHAH beth! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] KimExpressed: All those props!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] Janine Campbell: I also love that map background. [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] ssbeirne: Is anyone else's screen have a red tint to it in Cassie's presentation? [Feb 18 2017, 11:16 AM] theartofed: These ideas from Cassie are hilariously engaging! Who's going to start making videos right NOW!? [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] LeslieQ: :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: I so want to do this!!!!!!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: where do you find such great props! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Jaclyn Fritsche: love it! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Camille Katherine: There are many teachers who have been approached about the money they made on Teachers Pay Teachers [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: ? [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: (Raises Hand) Me! I am making videos this weekend!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Cassie Stephens: Props: halloween is the BEST time to shop! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: I just started using (free) Screencastify for short demos (2-5 min). Helps a LOT when you have to present the same thing over and over and over and over and don't want to forget something. [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Cassie Stephens: amazon has great things as well! [Feb 18 2017, 11:17 AM] Guest8877: mine is still just buffering - i didn't realize it had started! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] SusanDufault: @ Camille Approached how?? [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] artlifewithfarr: My biggest problem with imovie is exporting. [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Margaret McDonald: i saw your rainbow hat on amazon! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I wish I had an art dept. it's just me! How fun it would be to do with a group of teachers! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: Ok got to check out I movie [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] TimBogatzAOE: You can also check out some of Cassie's other ideas in her AOE videos--https://www.theartofed.com/author/ cassieart75gmail-com/ [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Margaret McDonald: I NEED iMovie! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Craig Huffman: Melanie, see if you can get students to play parts, too. [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Emily Long: imovie always randomly quits on me... ive used wevideo [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Margaret McDonald: BUT NO MAC [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: yes export as what kind of file [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Cassandra Moos: Oh Cassie, you're the best! If I had more time I'd be making videos just like this for EVERYTHING I teach. [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Denise Wright: Welcome from Maryland....this is awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Rachel Albert: My you tube channel: https:// www.youtube.com/channel/UCSUVCrhqUhbU4-BHvJeIOIA/videos? view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=0 [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] ssbeirne: Your presentation has a red tint to it...is anyone else's like that? [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Ladyuxen: This was an awesome presentation! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: That's a great idea! Thanks Craig, you are full of ideas! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] MaddyL: Thank you Cassie!!! Great video! [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Nicole Davenport: The imovie app for the iPad works well too [Feb 18 2017, 11:18 AM] Linda Krecker Brett: I love iMovie. Its easy to use but has some great effects. [Feb 18 2017, 11:19 AM] Cassie Stephens: Margaret, there are many other resources for PC :) Just google search it! [Feb 18 2017, 11:19 AM] artlifewithfarr: You can use Stupify and Powtoons and other free software. I have used those. [Feb 18 2017, 11:19 AM] Lynette Marie: Vimeo is a great editing software if you do not have a mac. [Feb 18 2017, 11:19 AM] KimExpressed: Thanks Cassie!!!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:20 AM] Jen Overton: Find another person to video you when you are first making videos. It is way easier that way. Even it you are using a tripod. [Feb 18 2017, 11:20 AM] ssbeirne: Yaaaaaay Matt and Craig!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:20 AM] Maria Marino Cirillo: really luv the videos have used some premade videos into my classroom and it is awesome, would love to begin creating my own-thanks for presenting Cassie [Feb 18 2017, 11:20 AM] Matt Young: whoot!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:21 AM] Craig Huffman: Not sure, but most of them are similar, now. [Feb 18 2017, 11:21 AM] Jennifer_Borel: @Alyssa YES! I use them on my PC [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Craig Huffman: They copy ideas off each other. [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] artlifewithfarr: So happy that Art of Education exists for us. Best PD ever. [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: way more effective! [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Alyssa Manning: @Jennifer_Borel which ones do you use?

[Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] theartofed: Thanks artlifewithfarr - we can't tell you how happy this makes us! #weloveartteachers [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: Yay! Less testing! Just moved from Tech job because of how many tests I had to administer! [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Jennifer_Borel: @Alyssa Windows Movie Maker is super easy :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Glenwood_Art: DATA [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Ladyuxen: Data? [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Ladyuxen: Data [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Cassie Stephens: Thank you, Jennifer! [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Margaret McDonald: data...... the word! [Feb 18 2017, 11:22 AM] Alyssa Manning: Awesome, I'll check it out. Thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Live long and prosper! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Matt Young: We have been giving a lot of talks about his type of assessment lately. [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Ladyuxen: Word of the Day! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Emily Miller: This is fabulous!!! I teach in a PBL high school. Thank you! I'm so excited! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Stephanie Ann: I don't have tests, but I do have to do a student learning objective. The way it's set up is suchhhh a waste of time though [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Matt Young: DATA!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Kelsey Pralle: Only art teacher in my district! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Melanie Bridgman Britten: I wish I had a department. [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: Live long and Prosper! Love it! [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: standards.....ugh. [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Sara Baird: I wish I had another art teaching colleague in my building. [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Craig Huffman: I wish I had a shorter one. [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Craig Huffman: :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Cristi Miller: The information here is great, but frustrating when you are told exactly how you must assess students and no wiggle room is given. :-/ [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Carly Stockley: HA [Feb 18 2017, 11:23 AM] Jlwilliams78Jw: Do you use state or national standards? [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Use your music teacher, or other specialists, or even your principal! [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] LeslieQ: Craig and Matt! This is fabulous! [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I always feel like anything you do in an art room is within the standards automatically, is that crazy? [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Matt Young: We have use state, but cheat in some national :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Janine Campbell: I love standards-based assessments. I use Schoology to create rubrics that directly link to the State standards and keeps tracks trends in student growth. Anyone else use Schoology for this feature? [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I use artist statements with every project, very revealing! [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Matt Young: Standards are broad and usually fit everything :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Robyn Rubenstein Shear: My administration insists on written midterm and finals. AND my evaluation is based on the students ELA and math achievement scores. Ugh! [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] Janine Campbell: Matt - that is so true! [Feb 18 2017, 11:24 AM] artlifewithfarr: Schoology? shounds cool. [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: exactly Matt! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] theartofed: Attendees are taking collaborative notes from the conference here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/ 1fpKlmkPm29IyDYKzYE9HIS--7LagdhRkFQ0Qd8SHE4M/edit#heading=h.xt7s86pls7o0 [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] theartofed: Join on in if you're interested. [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Sara Baird: RCampus is a great resource for rubrics. You can create your own, search a HUGE database, and modify existing rubrics. [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Sue Nangle: can I ask how many classes do you teach each day I work two days and teach 7 one day and six the other day so I don't get bathroom breaks for 5 hour stretches. are your schedules manageable? [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Trisha McMillan Peters: I used to use Schoology - but now am in a district that uses Canvas. Anyone else on Canvas? [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] artlifewithfarr: I do "affirmations" and pair and share affirmations in middle school. They are so critical of their work. [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] theartofed: Who thinks Matt and Craig should host their own comedy show?! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] artlifewithfarr: Canvas? Cool. [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Emily Long: YES! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Lindsey Skidmore Moss: Yes to the comedy show!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Melissa Gleiser: sounds like our ASW [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] BVSDVisualArts: Love it! Yes! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Matt Young: We teach 6-7 classes a day and have a lunch and planning period [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Stephanie Ann: @sue, in my district you aren't allowed to teach more than 3 periods in a row! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Sue Nangle: we use jupiter grading [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] MsBellsArtists: I'd go to the comedy show too! [Feb 18 2017, 11:25 AM] Laura Ruth Carey: They are a great team [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Janine Campbell: That is a lot of classes - how long are your sections? [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Marcella Duchamp: anybody else itinerant? [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Thanks for the link to the Google Doc! [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Vanessa Powell: This conversation is so good for me to take part in. I feel like we focus so much on product and so little on process. This is good thinking for me! [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Matt Young: It is nice to teach with your best friend :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: the tough part is dealing with the students that have been thrown in your class to get an "easy credit" to graduate. In other words they don't want to be there. They are quite a challenge!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Glenwood_Art: word melanie [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Sue Nangle: jk and k are 45 the others are 60 min [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Shelly Hardin: CAssie -- you are my art teacher HERO! [Feb 18 2017, 11:26 AM] Matt Young: Our classes are all 45 min long [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] EShields: I could kill for 60 min classes! [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] LeslieQ: Our classes are 60 minutes! I like that better than 45! [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Vanessa Powell: I have a similar schedule to you Matt. 6 classes and a 7th period enrichment that's 30 min. [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Cristi Miller: We get 40 minutes with our early childhood-5th graders. [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: *sigh* [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Glenwood_Art: we use similar ideas for our district..like taking risks..showing voice... [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] EShields: I see my whole school currently in 2.5 days and my classes are around 40 ins [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Matt Young: If you teach elementary you will want to move from one grade level to the next 1-2-3-4 etc [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Melissa Gleiser: i have 30 min classes with no transition [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Cristi Miller: We used to have 60 min classes. I miss them. :-/ [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Glenwood_Art: at the high school [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Guest1553: All teachers in the art district would need to have input. I think it would be important for all teachers to be present to plan for this. [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Melissa my heart goes out to you [Feb 18 2017, 11:27 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: major progress! [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: I would like the unit plan for the lesson they are explaining [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: we have like 75 Minute classes [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Matt Young: Having this common rubric is great. Students can see what is expected of them and grading has become much easier [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] KimExpressed: Did they mention what grade this examples were for [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Camille Katherine: Cassie, I was hesitant ordering your book...I have no kiln. HECK, I have no sink. BUT, when I saw that the book was air dry clay I broke my neck getting to my amazon prime phone app!!! Ordering NOW! [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Jlwilliams78Jw: IS there a link to the rubric? [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Melissa, I had 8 back to back classes and a lunch duty my 1st year, so I feel for you! [Feb 18 2017, 11:28 AM] Ladyuxen: I teach all 3-D courses and the other art teacher at the hs teaches all the 2-D courses. [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Ladyuxen: My question to you all is, how do we do this if we are not teaching the same thing? [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] EShields: I have no sinks, no kiln, share the space with other programs [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Matt Young: Feel free to check out our links to the extras. Here is a link to our website if you would like to see some of the lessons http://centralartwiki.wikispaces.com/home [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Cristi Miller: The thing I find the most frustrating by using a standardized assessment for art is that we tend to focus on facts, and many of the important things students get (like creativity) can't readily be assessed. [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Kellyanne Joyce: This is great, my student have an opportunity to take an Endorse Art Diploma in my school to earn a LOTE for an Advance Regent Diploma, and part the exam is assessment similar to this. [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: my high school classes are 45 mins, never long enough but not bad. my elementary are more like 20 by the time the kids get there etc. I only see them twice a week for half the year and once a week the other half. not much time at all [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] KendallArtsAlot: The common rubric just has craftsmanship [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Sue Nangle: yes what level is this rubric [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] EShields: the rubric said grades 9-12 [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I agree Cristi! [Feb 18 2017, 11:29 AM] Matt Young: High school [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Sue Nangle: thanks [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] KimExpressed: Thanks Matt [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Here is a copy of Matt and Craig's rubric--it's also available in the After Pass: https://www.theartofed.com/ content/uploads/2017/01/YoungHuffmanRubric.docx [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Cristi Miller: So we end up focusing on the less important stuff, because we're assessed on "growth", and the really important things like creativity and problem solving suffer. [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Ladyuxen: oh good, thank you, the rubric is what I wanted [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Ruth Post: great! [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] KimExpressed: Do you think we should be attempting value on an Elementary Level? I tried this year and bombed! [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Emily Long: the video just cut out... [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Emily Miller: Yes, it's possible! [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: anyone here teach art AND music and certified for both? [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Stephanie Ann: I teach in 2 schools, the principals want one thing, my department head said the way I do rubrics & lesson plans are logical for art. So basically any time I get observed I have to tailor it for specific people. So annoying. Thank goodness I don't have to submit lesson plans regularly. [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] TimBogatzAOE: AND these guys have a second video in the After Pass--make sure you check it out when the conference is over! [Feb 18 2017, 11:30 AM] Matt Young: Our rubrics have all goal, creativity, craftsmanship, reflection... but we only had 15 min to present. So we just showed craftsmanship. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I won't grade students on talent but I will grade them on how hard they work no matter what their results are. If they work hard every day and give it their all they get an A. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: yes I believe you can KIM [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] TryScience: Cristi, I agree with you but I think that strong technical skills give students a lot of confidence to be creative. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] ssbeirne: @kimexpressed I just did value with 4th grade and it turned out great! [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Sarah Carr: I do a whole unit on value KimExpressed k-5 [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Emily Miller: They can begin value by doing a value scale of conjoined rectangles. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Ruth Post: Where do you get the National Visual Arts Standard's poster? [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Missy Roth Perna: i do value with 2nd grade very easy understandings for adding tints and shades [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Ruth there is one printable on Deep Space Sparkle [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Beth_Dreyer: I've tried using the point system on my rubrics! I am glad to see they are using that, but with elementary kids, it's been a lot of trial and error and I am by no means a pro! Guess I will keep trying! [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: I teach K-2, including my Sp Ed. I have 600 Students. 40 Minute Sessions. Classes run from 8:15- 2:00 with an hour for lunch. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] KendallArtsAlot: How do you measure creativity? I worry about how loose that is. [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] KimExpressed: I've been successful with tints and shades but value with graphite...bombed [Feb 18 2017, 11:31 AM] Kelsey Pralle: I introduce upper elementary to value with color pencil grades 4-6 and it goes well! I always give them "mess around time" that they can play with what I just taught them!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Matt Young: Ruth it is on the NAEA website under National Visual Standards [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Tchs Goodrich Art: The whole assessment thing is always so time consuming. It really takes me so long. [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Patty89: How do you show growth in only 9 weeks? Every quarter, I get a new group of students. [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Missy Roth Perna: on my youtube value foxes flipped lesson...search commax1969 [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: I am middle school with 45 min classes...students don't have Elementary art...there is no new class to Prepare them for....but I try to catch them up before high school [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Stephanie Ann: @kimexpressed, I do value but stagger it, ex: kinders draw shadows, 3rd will learn shading. Also, know your group. Some groups will bomb projects others did great with [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] BVSDVisualArts: Ruth-- you can download it at:https://www.arteducators.org/learn-tools/national-visual-arts-standards [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Cristi Miller: The other thing to keep in mind with elementary and craftsmanship is that the littles (until around 2nd grade or so) aren't developmentally ready for that. They are more concerned with the process and how the materials feel to use. [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] LeslieQ: Yes... I do think elementary should learn value. All the Elements of Art are introduce and practiced in my grade 1 through 5. [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Janine Campbell: I love talking with students about growth. Anyone use Artsonia to keep records of student work between grade levels? [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Thanks guys! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Trisha McMillan Peters: Meaningful assessment at elementary for 600 kids is a challenge. Not enough hours in a day.... [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: i begin value at grade 3 [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: Hahah right now we are doing a Keep Montana Green Contest! great end remark [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I use Artsonia! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Sue Nangle: thank you matt and craig [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Ladyuxen: That was another fantastic presentation. Growth is so important. [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] EShields: I love Artsonia! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Beth_Dreyer: Thanks gentlemen! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Elizabeth Grandon: Great to see an assessment example!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] EShields: My parents have been so happy with it [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] Sarah McColley Harlow: National Board Certification wants you to show growth in students like this too [Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM] SusanDufault: So good!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Ugh Artsonia is soooo much work [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Janine Campbell: We use Artsonia k-8 and it is awesome to have students view work from years and years ago. [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] KimExpressed: I use Artsonia, Janine Campbell. it is great for being able to compare for growth. [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Jen Mallory: Thanks for the concrete examples! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] BarbaraKirberger: Thank you, great information! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Janine Campbell: Kim - it is the BEST! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Carly Stockley: yay she mentioned me! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Anybody else have an everyone gets an A in Elementary art policy? Unwritten of course [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Sarah McColley Harlow: I adore artsonia even at the high school level [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Melissa Ann: yes. Artsonia since 2002! [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Cristi Miller, I totally agree. We should talk! :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Sara Baird: Is Artsonia easy to use for 600+ K-5 students? I've been considering it. [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] theartofed: How do you #artednow? Post your pics here!!!! https://www.facebook.com/theartofed/posts/1406883942694972 [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Artsonia is amazing, but omg how do you have time to take all the pics?? [Feb 18 2017, 11:33 AM] Mary Joan Dickrell-Starnitcky: I do this too! I also have the kids do their color wheel test by actually having them paint a color wheel for their final!!! and then add in complementary, analogous etc. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Guest6741: Good info for the high school level. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Even with parent volunteers it's incredibly time consuming [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Janine Campbell: My kids upload their own art on Artsonia. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Jessica Davis Shults: Artsonia--have the kids do it themselves! [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Janine Campbell: I use classroom mode and it is awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Elementary kids upload their own? [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Ashley McLaughlin: Artsonia is awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Glenwood_Art: not an all [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Marcella Duchamp: Do you have ipads? We have one ipad and my iphone [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Janine Campbell: I do it with 7-8th grade to upload their own. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Lisa Pavlak: Artsonia is great! How did you create an "Artsonia Upload Station" Jessica? [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Christy Berry: Many students in one classroom with one sink. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Jessica Davis Shults: I have 1st graders and up uploading themselves [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Matt Young: FYI AOE has our links in the extras. Feel free to email us with any questions. We have been doing this level of assessment with HS for the last 2 years and many of the districts around us are moving to this type of "testing" for their teacher evaluations. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Janine Campbell: Our kids are 1:1 with Chromebooks and Macbook Airs. [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Sarah McColley Harlow: High school- kids do it themselves with 3D. I do it for 2D [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Matt Young: Thanks to all!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Sarah McColley Harlow: They all have phones! [Feb 18 2017, 11:34 AM] Heather May Schwartz: What was the hashtag we are supposed to use with our pics of where we are at?? [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] artlifewithfarr: thanks matt [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] MsBellsArtists: #artednow [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Janine Campbell: Jessica - that is great your kids upload it themselves. [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Paige Hall: as an art docent, I only have 1 hr to teach lesson and to do the project. It hurts to cut the kid's discussion off in order to have enough time to do the hands-on project [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Erin Fry: My elementary kids upload their own 3-5 with one i-pad. It is part of their final steps of a project [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: Great free website for high school students to create digital portfolios and college applications. carbonmade.com [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thank you Matt and Craig! Your information will help me sooo much! [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Guest7500: Extra expectation outside my room. Assisting classroom teachers and admin.. [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: 66 degrees here today [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Janine Campbell: It is also nice to have it with artist statements on artsonia. [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Stephanie Ann: donors choose is great to get ipads/ chromebooks. One classroom teacher just got a second request for chromebooks funded and has a 1:1 student to laptop ratio [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: ONLY 45!! I would KILL for that! [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Melissa Ann: Same as Erin 3-5th upload - I got an ipad with the artsonia iPledge program last year [Feb 18 2017, 11:35 AM] Lisa Pavlak: Erin, I have one personal i-pad and want to have them do the artsonia uploading themselves too.

Helps me to know what my Ss are thinking about thier work. Not enough time to converse with them all. [Feb 18 2017, 11:36 AM] Melanie Martinez: Signed in from NM and very excited!!! :) [Feb 18 2017, 11:36 AM] Lian Brehm: 3 minute trasitions this year, yikes!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Melissa Gleiser: I use the time when students are in line to do verbal assessments with my students about the lesson [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: Not having enough planning prep time is my issue. [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Guest5418: Picasso Says! [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Karen Blackburn: Time waster: teachers coming or worse: sending their students to "borrow" supplies! [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Guest1553: Me, too! :( [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Holly Clement: I have an hour, once a week. I love it!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Lian Brehm: I use the windowsills (which are deep) and lots of trays for each table, the only way I can switch projects. [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Melissa Ann: Stephanie - I send mine in the hallway and let the next class in. That teacher in the hall can give devil eyes to the late colleague [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Karen Jaret Karnuta: PICTIONARY on the white board [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Erin Fry: The artsonia app makes it super easy.

[Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] KimExpressed: I will not loan supplies if they interrupt teaching [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: where is the PDF link? [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] artlifewithfarr: Hello, NM! The land of enchantment. [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Maria Marino Cirillo: never enough prep [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Missy Roth Perna: I train my students to upload their own projects to artsonia grades 3-5 we have 6 ipads and rotate them to the best places in the room to photograph. the younger grades are uploaded by my older 5th grade "art helpers" [Feb 18 2017, 11:37 AM] Kattie Leonffu: under links tab: Moss.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 11:38 AM] Guest5418: That's great idea!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:38 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: I have zero transition time. My classes begin and end at the same time. I have to build prep time into class time, which takes away from instruction... but perhaps teaches responsibility, since I have to enlist their help. [Feb 18 2017, 11:38 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Here is Lindsey's first link (the editable powerpoint): Editable: https://www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/ 2017/01/Moss-Editable.pptx [Feb 18 2017, 11:38 AM] Jlwilliams78Jw: where is the link?

Multiple prints? Years? Is a class set worth the investment for elementary. I hope that I could get a couple of years out of the prints. [Feb 18 2017, 11:52 AM] bellafiore3: Fantastic website https://www.portfolio- oomph.com/ [Feb 18 2017, 11:52 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: if you take care of them they last jelli plates [Feb 18 2017, 11:52 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: It's an AWESOME piece of art! :) your daughter is wonderful!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Elizabeth Harper: @Sara Baird- my understanding is that they clean well with baby wipes and/or hand sanitizer [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Stephanie Ann: you can make homemade gelli prints but they only last like a week [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Ladyuxen: Guest7304 yes! You just need unflavored gelatin packets [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Trisha McMillan Peters: recipes are online for gelli plates. [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Polly Blair: "You learn to see by drawing." YUP [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Shelly Hardin: Gelli plates are totally worth the investment! [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Janine Campbell: I have had gelli arts plates for years. I use them in my own work . [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Emily Long: I've been looking for a simple way to do printmaking, might have to look into the jellies! [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Trisha McMillan Peters: I have made plates that have lasted years [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Gerrie Gilchrist: I made home made jelli plates just to see if i could they work but dont hold up as long [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Emily Miller: I'm guessing your daughter loved the beauty of the blended colors and the feel of rubbing over the bumps? What did she say later? I'd love to hear her thoughts! [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: My students hold their pencils in the craziest ways!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:53 AM] Sara Baird: @Shelly & @Elizabeth, Thank you! I have been eyeing them for years and want to know I'll use them for years to come. [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Stephanie Ann: the OT would die if she came into my room and saw this [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] KimExpressed: I have a very talented student that fist her tools [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Elizabeth Harper: @Sara I invested in some small ones but wish I would have bought bigger [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Emily Long: Stephanie, Omg YES!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I have an autistic student that grabs his marker, pencil anything really and he gets the most amazing results!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Janine Campbell: I love the idea of unlearning. Maybe I need to do a day of unlearning. [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] Sara Baird: @Elizabeth, Good to know! Bigger is better, than! [Feb 18 2017, 11:54 AM] SusanDufault: Trisha what did you do to make plates last for years? [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Tamara Hallock: The handmade gellies are hard to keep for a long time. [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Julie you are a breath of fresh air! I love you advocacy of drawing and the words you use to explain the importance! [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Janine Campbell: It would be like a Mad Hatter situation... Happy Unlearning Day. [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Sarah McColley Harlow: I need my AP drawing kids to experiment with this mark marking! [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Elizabeth Harper: @Sara Gelli has a lot of different sizes and shapes [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] TryScience: Wow, I am about to begin an abstract art unit with my freehand drawing classes and I think an activity like this would be a great start. [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Emily Miller: Unlearning - YES!!! [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] bellafiore3: I love breaking down and unlearning markmaking habits great ideas [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Janine. I love that. [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] Stephanie Ann: @emily, it infuriates her that no one corrects pencil grasps, I tell them if their hand/wrist hurt, they're holding something wrong [Feb 18 2017, 11:55 AM] bellafiore3: Idea: do a non-traditional markmaking tool have Ss invent a tool to draw/mark with [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] bellafiore3: This could be a maker thing...invent a mark-making tool that is untraditional [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Janine Campbell: Response V Replica [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Jenny Wright Jackson: I love that she says it is "not always a photo representation of something an or exact replica' [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Carly Stockley: great exercises to let go of perfection [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] sspechtart: When I try these "alternative mark making" methods, it is often a big headache because it can be hard enough to engage many of my students to begin with - then I ask them to make and embrace a big mess??? They shut down and can never appreciate how they can apply that to the next assignment. They just want to learn to "shade good" [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Elizabeth Harper: I love the loose ink... who uses this with K-5?? [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] KimExpressed: I like the idea a maker thing [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Tara Petronic: I love this idea during standardized test weeks... last year I did painting with feet [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: I believe that there is a lesson on the Art of Ed site about creating a mark making tool [Feb 18 2017, 11:56 AM] TimBogatzAOE: Here is Julie's Powerpoint--it's awesome, and it has all of these examples she talks about in there: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/Julie-Read.pptx [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Emily Miller: Art is for the creator as much as for the audience, no? [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] sspechtart: I'd say 90% of my students could care less about expanding themselves as an artist - they just want to get through the class and/or walk out of the class with one pretty drawing or painting that they can give their mom for birthday [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Elizabeth Harper: agree @emily [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Nancy LeJune Schilhab: Thanks! I can see this as a resource for DOT day and "making our mark with art!" [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] bellafiore3: Does Julie teach the AOE Drawing class? [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: ah yes, trying to get students out of their comfort zone! [Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Karen Blackburn: LOOoooVE this!

[Feb 18 2017, 11:57 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: so important! [Feb 18 2017, 11:58 AM] Rebecca Schroppe: agree @sspechtart [Feb 18 2017, 11:58 AM] Guest5106: My students cry when their art doesn't look perfect [Feb 18 2017, 11:58 AM] Elizabeth Harper: @sspechtart this has changed dramatically since I switched to a TAB based room [Feb 18 2017, 11:58 AM] Sara Baird: @Tara- YES! Great idea. This gives Ss a chance to let their unconscious creativity out, esp. after all that focused thought. A creative brain break! [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Rebecca Schroppe: susan - i cannot access links/ downloads while conf video is playing either [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Missy Roth Perna: I introduced splatter painting as the last step in a landscape to add snow to our watercolors...it was unbelievably wonderful how the energy level and excitement of this simple process engaged the kids. [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] leah_yurk: me o=too [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] leah_yurk: *me too [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] ARTwithAshley: This drawing presentation is fantastic. I'm developing a distance education drawing course right now, and this is the most useful PD I've had by far. [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: cool! [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I have so many students who want their art to be perfect and they have a hard time letting go. [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] SusanDufault: @rebecca - thank you. [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: OK I'm not an apple friendly users. I'm all windows. What video maker can be used besides iMovie? Oh and I'm not very technical inclined either [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Elizabeth Harper: @Robin Movie Maker [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] Lynette Marie: Vimeo is excellent! [Feb 18 2017, 11:59 AM] TimBogatzAOE: @ArtwithAshley that is awesome to hear! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Sara Baird: OMG, that shoe box mark maker is awesome. STEAM! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Missy Roth Perna: The "perfectionist" is the roughest behavior to deal with in the art studio [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Emily Miller: Shoe box is brilliant [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] KendallArtsAlot: Love having new contemporary artists to intro to students!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Emily Miller: ! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] BVSDVisualArts: @Robin: Yes, windows movie maker! Super easy to use! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Rebecca Schroppe: i find my second yaer hs art students have an easier time moving beyond their comfort zone. possibly b/c class size gets smaller and they've had a year of exposure to pushing them beyond their comfort. [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Stephanie Ann: I recently showed a side by side of 2 pieces of art, both are a vase with flowers, I let them talk about it, compare them. They usually rip one apart. I ask if they think if they're the same artist, they usually say no. Then I reveal I did one when I was 7, the other when I was 29. It's a good visual to show how practice improves. I teach elementary so they can relate to the age. We talk about how my art would look if I had just quit. It seemed to help them [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Monica Spieker: Very great perspective! [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Lynette Marie: @ Robin Vimeo is an excellent free online video maker. Its very similar to imovie maker and just as easy to move. Premier is more of a photoshop version. [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] Missy Roth Perna: wow great video [Feb 18 2017, 12:00 PM] artlifewithfarr: great video [Feb 18 2017, 12:01 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I tell my kids that all of the time!

I'm going to buy a set [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] emd: Modeling clay an underused source. Every grade loves it, and its great when you have extra time. [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] Abbie Willwerth: Davy Forsyth [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: I bought the Picasso quote magnet saying that quote...while at Picasso museum in Spain! [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] KimExpressed: They were from Crystal Art, you could probably google them. [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Thanks everyone ...I'm slow at chat too lol [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] devonnestor: the drawing backpack was Davy Forsyth [Feb 18 2017, 12:02 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: yay Nic...did fiber arts with you through AOE@ :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:03 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: wow! nice school!

There are great 5 mins or less videos already out there that cover them individually! [Feb 18 2017, 12:07 PM] Guest5106: ooh nancy good idea...

[Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] bellafiore3: Ladyuxen for HS maybe have students create the bit-o-bios [Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] Jamie Nicole: I think those of us who struggle to see our kids enough can make some SPEs out of media experiences [Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] Ladyuxen: bellafiore3: yes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] Ladyuxen: that is a great idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Yeah, good luck with that, Jennifer!

[Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] bellafiore3: LadyUxen HS could record the bit-o-bios [Feb 18 2017, 12:15 PM] KarolWeigert: SPE's using QR codes could be a good idea [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] SusanDufault: Not only HS student create but act them out create the video [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: we clean the tables, i don't want the kids getting stressed about something on the table we just clean it up. I found that it has cut down on puropse marking the table way down, and their artwork does not suffer becasue they are going to the edge. But I Do LOVE SPE [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Lian Brehm: Lining up at the end of a project, I have them line up by color, or by texture, etc. [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Lela Baugh Ulmanis: yes, plastic on tables....high school....they can be more distructive than the little ones! [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Ashley McLaughlin: I do "5 Minute Fridays" - every Friday I show a short video or article of something really fun going on in the art world - museum for dogs, virtual reality drawing.... etc! [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Guest7500: never [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Ashley--love that idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Karen Jaret Karnuta: My kids don't like to draw with the plastic underneath so I use SHOWER CURTAIN liners when I paint then I can pull them off when a class is drawing.

So excited to hear her talk - she's a, art teacher in my district! [Feb 18 2017, 12:16 PM] Glenwood_Art: At the end of my class, as we wait for the teacher..we do kindness ribbons, students nominate someone who did something kind, that person picks a ribbon and it gets added to a class kindness wreath [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Jamie Nicole: I always feel like they don't get to experience much more than our projects and I'd love to just do some quick fun lessons to give them more art experiences [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: weather great in Rome, Italy [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Lynette Marie: I created this "artist buckets" I bring onto the playgrounds with all different materials.

[Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Tamara Hallock: I printing out a sheet of artist quotes, cut them out with the paper cutter, pass out at the door, and students spend 4 min. writing a response. The kids tape them into their sketchbooks. Sometimes the quotes are not art related, but about progress or effort or creativity in general. [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Heather May Schwartz: glenwood art...what a cool idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: also very small classroom better outside [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Andrea Slu: Hello everyone! [Feb 18 2017, 12:17 PM] Emily Miller: I teach art (my fave, of course), photography, theater arts (costumes, props, etc for drama class) and Social Studies classes, in addition to Yearbook Adv.

[Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: We are spoiled here in Colorado! [Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Martha Butcher: I recently got a grant for materials to take the students outside of the classroom for Plein Air! Waiting for the weather to consistantly be nice.

[Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: Karo love the QR code idea [Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Monica Spieker: Is there anyone talking right now? I don't know if mine froze or not [Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Tamara Hallock: Also, for a 5 min. Bell ringer, I give a QUICK DRAW assignment. Sometimes I have them copy a master painting, or a gorgeous flower. I also pass out a item for each kids to draw. I try to relate these to the current project or a new artist. [Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Laura Geiger: Martha, what kind of things did you ask for in your grant? [Feb 18 2017, 12:18 PM] Heather May Schwartz: 55 minutes? Wow...I would love 55 minute sessions!

[Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Joan Martin: thanks Tim [Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Missy Roth Perna: Due to lockdowns last year we are not allowed outside due to the new security measures in my district...we had the most lockdowns nationally it was a stressfull rough year [Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Glenwood_Art: BOB ROSS!

[Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Missy Roth Perna: middletown NY [Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] bellafiore3: Love the idea of only having the pencils out for 5 minutes! Yes that is essential to get the painting going [Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Polly Blair: Yikes, Missy. What about recess? (Or maybe you're mid/hi?) [Feb 18 2017, 12:19 PM] Glenwood_Art: I played him for my high schoolers while they painted landscapes...all i heard was "BOB ROSS" [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] EShields: Bob Ross is the best [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Janine Campbell: I want one of those brushes!

It keeps switching automatically to the presentation [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] EShields: Agreed, those brushes are awesome [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Missy Roth Perna: recess is like a airport check in...i used to make and fly kites and create bubble art ...last year i had to give it all up [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Robin Esp: ohhhh those brushes look fun! [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Emily Miller: Anyone know where to get those brushes cheap? [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Guest7902: Yes, can't bring the kids outside during school hours; however, this would be a great "Art Club" (afterschool) activity...? [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Tamara Hallock: My great friend, Amelia Dumball lives in Middleton. Missy, maybe you know her and her kids. [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] leah_yurk: you can find them at Michaels [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: ok got signed into chat with my name instead of guest. Those brushes are the best. I have a ton for my own artwork. Never thought to buy for the students... maybe? [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Martha Butcher: I got 30 drawings boards about 18" square, caddies for carrying, pencils, watercolor pencils, and nice hand held pencil sharpeners. Also tried unsuccessfully to get some framing supplies. They didn't have what I'd need for elementary. [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Melissa Ann: Blick has them - [Feb 18 2017, 12:20 PM] Lynette Marie: I would love to do a texture plate lesson with having students using crayons on playground equipment and making a collage of something :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Carly Stockley: never seen them with the flat bristles [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Ladyuxen: I have a couple of those brushes, they are hard to find.

[Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: Those are cool brushes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Matt Young: We work in conjunction with the photography teacher to have students work collaboratively in painting and drawing. Since field trips are limited, the photos are great original references for the work we are doing in the 2D classes. [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Elizabeth Harper: ideas on how to do this with elementary? the material set-up/clean-up is intimidating with going outside... [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Laura Geiger: Nice Martha! Thanks! [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Also, Andrea talks a lot about her work as an artist, and balancing it with her teaching in this podcast episode. Give it a listen later! https://www.theartofed.com/podcasts/art-teachers- artists-ep-017/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] BarbaraKirberger: Love those brushes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:21 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: I take my K students on a "Texture Hunt" (like Going on a Bear Hunt)... they have big crayons and big paper and we sneak around the school, outside the school [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Laura Geiger: Would you be willing to email me your grant request? I would love to submit a request for similar things from our education foundation in our district? [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Maybe chalk pastel with elementary. [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Ladyuxen: https://www.amazon.com/Pentel-Aquash-Water- Assorted-FRHBFMBP3/dp/B00AX31TZO [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Melissa Ann: Have them make a quick palette - color a square on a piece of paper with w/c pencil. Then take the waterbrush. Keep it light - no messy paint stuff [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Ladyuxen: water rbushes [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Ladyuxen: brushes [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Guest9988: I like my Pentel water brushes and Niji is a good brand. There are cheaper versions, but they leak. [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @sarah I guess I was thinking "painting" but DUH to me- any medium would be awesome [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Janine Campbell: I love blick liquid watercolors. They are so saturated. [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] MaddyL: Thank you Ladyuxen! [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Emily Miller: I went outside with elem - plastic tablecloths to sit on, water in large buckets already out there. Kids use clip boards, to hold paper in breeze. [Feb 18 2017, 12:22 PM] Elizabeth Harper: thanks @melissa. I love wc pencils [Feb 18 2017, 12:23 PM] Tamara Hallock: How can students use the liquid watercolors? [Feb 18 2017, 12:23 PM] bellafiore3: I use Caran D'Ache watercolor crayons and they are awesome!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:23 PM] Tamara Hallock: Don't the liquids watercolors spill very easily? [Feb 18 2017, 12:23 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: If outside access is limited, what about rooms with windows? Is there any way to create videos like we saw in other presentations? I know it's not the same... [Feb 18 2017, 12:23 PM] ssbeirne: I put my liquid watercolor paints in muffin tins. No spills! [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Guest3460: love the texture hunt idea Sarah! [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Elizabeth Harper: my kids love using medicine droppers as "squirtters" for liquid wc or plain water over washable marker [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Tamara Hallock: I can present a photographic landscape on the projector screen or I have laminated landscapes from calendars and magazines. [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Ladyuxen: We have an outside classroom where the agricultural classes go to study plant growth. It is a really pretty garden April and May and in the fall. We take our students out there. [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Andrea Slu: https://thenerdyartteacher.wordpress.com/ 2017/02/15/plein-and-simple-watercolor-landscapes/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: Elem - I teach the "formal" landscape using Tricia Fuglestad's Godzilla movie. I have a sheet with a rectangle at the top to do the areas (FG, MG, Bkg, HL, etc) and then cloze sentences that match her video below that we fill in together [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Andrea Slu: Some great student examples and classroom breakdown (when the weather doesn't cooperate!) [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Tamara Hallock: Muffin tins-- good idea. I would think a lot would be wasted at the end of the period. No? [Feb 18 2017, 12:24 PM] Tracey Taylor: Tamara, I use photos for landscape locations all the time. [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] Lynette Marie: Students could create sun prints by collecting different types of plants and using weaving around the final product [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] theartofed: Where are you attending #artednow from? Post a pic here! https://www.facebook.com/theartofed/posts/1406883942694972 [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] ssbeirne: I only use them for larger scale projects and only put a tiny bit in at a time...that way there is little waste [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] Matt Young: Seeing a lot posted here for people with limited resources. If you can get a good projector, hook it up to your computer and get the biggest sheet you can to project on. Then you can take your students on a virtual trip. And still do observational methods. [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] Missy Roth Perna: wish.com carries the brushes cheap...but takes forever to ship [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] Patty89: Used the liquid water colors and students painted with yarn. They dragged the yarn through the paint and put it on tagboard paper. Showed them splatter methods too. Did this with 6th graders. [Feb 18 2017, 12:25 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Awesome suggestion, Matt [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Janine Campbell: Thanks for sharing! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Kellyanne Joyce: Awesome lesson! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] KCase: Does anyone know if there's a way to get a transcript of this chat session? So many awesome comments and links from everyone. [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Tchs Goodrich Art: What were the brushes she was using during her "Plein Air" painting? [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Missy Roth Perna: Awesome video!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Ladyuxen: I want to teach 2-D arts now! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Emily Miller: Awesome video, thank you!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] BarbaraKirberger: I love that lesson and your tips, Andrea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Tamara Hallock: I see downloads now... I had to his the arrow on the right. [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] MaddyL: Great Idea Matt Young! Good Maps/Street view might have great resources. [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] LeslieQ: Thanks! Love your tips on watercolors and landscape! :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Melissa Ann: To whoever asked about the brushes they can last for years. If you leave water in them, they can get moldy [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] LeslieQ: Great ideas! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Thanks Missy! [Feb 18 2017, 12:26 PM] Patricia Parrish Wolfe: I'd like a transcript of this chat, too! How? [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Tamara Hallock: transcript of the chat session would be GREAT [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Emily Long: MATT! Awesome idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: can we get that brush next time in the swag box???!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] LeslieQ: I wish i registered early.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Melissa Gleiser: Swag box was amazing [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: I love my swag box! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: Love the swag box! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Katrina Croft: Swag box was awesome!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] MTauber: Aw, missed out on the swag box :( [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Lela Baugh Ulmanis: loved the swag! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Melanie Martinez: Amazing brushes [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Monica Spieker: Yes thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Emily Miller: LOVE my swag, thank you!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] KimExpressed: Thank you to all the swag suppliers!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: Wish I registered earlier for the swag box -_- [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Missy Roth Perna: Love the SWAG!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Elizabeth Castor: WooHoo lots of great swag and love to get such fun samples. [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] pattyk1: I use that kind of brush-works great [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Tara Petronic: Yes! So happy to get the swag box this time! Such great stuff! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Virginia Gramlow: love the sway, thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 12:27 PM] Rebecca Schroppe: i love the swag...and my 10yr old daughter gets just as excited when it comes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Miss the Blick coupon :( [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] KarolWeigert: Hey MTauber- there is still digital swag you can enjoy- take advantage of that! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Martha Butcher: I'll try to register earlier next year for SWAG! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] TaraCarmichael: sad swag, too late! :D [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Stephanie Ann: I love the plaster craft. My kiddos HATE the consistency of paper mache [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Elizabeth Castor: Especially love getting to try out things I wouldn't ordinarily purchase [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Robyn Rubenstein Shear: Use ridged wrap all the time! love it [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: And miss the Faber Castell samples [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Nanette Bratton: When I received the swag box I was working on a plaster gauze project and was so happy to receive the rigid wrap! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] KimExpressed: Used that to make birds with twistee wire one year...great engaging project [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Missy Roth Perna: don't dump the dipping water down the drain...unless you want to meet the district plumber [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: I was not happy about getting nothing because I did not sign up early. In a go to conference you always get something no matter what day. I was disappointed. [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Andrea Slu: Thank you everyone for enjoying! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Martha Butcher: I'm totally horrible at keeping up with Chat and with everything else! Whaaa! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Rebecca Schroppe: tks for tip missy! [Feb 18 2017, 12:28 PM] Kellyanne Joyce: Arts and Activities is free on their website [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: This was the best box for art teachers, I love my items and I am so glad I was able to be part of the swag! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Heather May Schwartz: So sad that my swag box didn't show up for today....:( [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: my daughter had a blast with the tempera cakes [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Polly Blair: Gerrie--How about all those awesome PDFs and downloads? [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] SusanDufault: Love the swag box - thank you to theartofed and to all of the suppliers!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Tammy Picone Nohelty: The swag box was great! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Linda Krecker Brett: Same here Gerrie. [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Heather May Schwartz: Military mail to my location is not so trustworthy.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] SusanDufault: Ditto Linda and Gerrie!! Argh!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Julie Grove Campbell: I think it would be great if those of us who missed getting a Swagbox, had our names entered in a drawing to win a Swagbox. Just wishful thinking.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Lisa Eknoian: I did the cupcake lesson with 1st grade!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Lynette Marie: Yes I agree! [Feb 18 2017, 12:29 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: That is a great idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Rebecca Schroppe: julie - great idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Tchs Goodrich Art: Was there a name brand on the "plein air" brushes? [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: Oh that swag box looks fabulous... WIshing I had gotten one too. [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Love the Dab and Dots! [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: yes Down loads are great but not art supplies [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Melissa Ann: CAn't say dab in the classroom right now lol [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Heather May Schwartz: Those plein air brushes are on Blick.com [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Melanie Martinez: Those markers are the best! Older kids love them as well. [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Tiffany Loucks: Kids hear Dab and -- OH MY. [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Glenwood_Art: i am sure the moment you say dab...we all know what happens [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Ladyuxen: Never say the word DAB in a high school room or you will make all of them do it [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Ladyuxen: stop saying dab! lol [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Tiffany Loucks: ELEMENTARY is NO better! [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Glenwood_Art: THEY ALL DO IT [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] A Sikkema: Dab and dot are GREAT! [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: I just call them Dot markers [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] KCase: hahaha... so true Tiffany. They're always dabbin' [Feb 18 2017, 12:30 PM] Missy Roth Perna: dab dab dab [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Lian Brehm: My SPED studewnts LOVE dot markers, but the foam tops rip very easily. These woven tops last much better! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Janine Campbell: Nervous and excited to share with you all next! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Ladyuxen: So annoying. They look like they are sneezing and having a seizure at the same time [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Tiffany Loucks: It's a DABBING epidemic! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Heidi Roche: I like saying dab over and over in the classroom. See how many times I can make them do it. [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Heather May Schwartz: One of my students drew a still life mannequin doing the dab! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Tara Petronic: @melissa- totally agree- had to change my painting/glueing lingo [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Ladyuxen: lordy [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Christy Berry: Yea Janine! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Emily Long: I've just embraced the dab.... i made a video about clay and when i said "dab the water on" i had a picture of mona lisa dabbing fly across the screen and the kids freaked out! [Feb 18 2017, 12:31 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Loving the idea of choice [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Tara Petronic: All of my mannequins are currently dabbing� [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Cristi Miller: Heather, my 5th graders always pose the little wood model on my desk in "dab" position. :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Charity Kilgore: Search for watercolor brushes with water reservoir on Amazon. :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Matt Young: YEAH choice. Go Janine :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Heather May Schwartz: Where did you get Mona Lisa dabbing?? [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Janine is awesome, and her blog is here: http://bcwmsart.weebly.com/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] SusanDufault: My problem is I like to change too much [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Voice & Choice baby! [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Luanne H: Love the SWAG box! Missed out last time but made sure I signed up early to get it this time!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: me to susan [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Tamara Hallock: can people share dab projects? any for middle/high school? [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] TimBogatzAOE: And here is Janine's handout if you are looking for it: https://www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/ JanineCampbellHandout.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Jamie Nicole: I was trained in DBAE too! [Feb 18 2017, 12:32 PM] Heather May Schwartz: LOL Cristi! [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Cristi Miller: I trained in DBAE as well. [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thank yo for the link Tim! [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Jamie Nicole: Cristi - mine too! Middle schoolers! [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Tamara Hallock: I had students make christmas lights with the dabbers. they cut them out and then made a garland with them. [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] SusanDufault: Will there be a transcript of this chat saved somewhere? [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Karen Blackburn: Already Choice-based TAB and Love it! Never going back! [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Jamie Nicole: #saynotodabs [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] theartofed: Don't worry, if you missed out on the swag box this time, you'll get an opportunity later to register for the NEXT Art Ed Now event (the first week of August) at an exclusive price... guaranteeing you a swag box for Summer! [Feb 18 2017, 12:33 PM] Andrea Slu: https://www.amazon.com/Mudder-Watercolor- Paintbrush-Assorted-Pieces/dp/B01EONVX5Y/ref=sr_1_2?s=arts- crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1487439212&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=water+brushes&psc=1 -- these are the brand I use in my own art practice [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Cristi Miller: I did a switch to choice, but this year we seem to need more direct instruction. Even with expectations set, we had a lot of issues with behavior. [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Heather May Schwartz: Do you have tracking numbers for the swag box...I am wondering what happened to mine... [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] rleirmo: yes, will the chat be saved? [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Andrea Slu: *I have not ordered these for my class set, as they are pretty expensive for a bunch of them. I've had a bunch of my students purchase them on their own and bring them into class (perks of high school!) [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Heather May Schwartz: I registered early.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] MTauber: Cristi- I've had tons of disciplines issues this year too- 7th graders [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Emily Miller: I'm missing a lot of chat in taking notes. Will this be available later? Y'all have lots of good ideas! [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Karen Blackburn: The swag was better over the summer [Feb 18 2017, 12:34 PM] Cristi Miller: I have one full set of the Dab and Dots and mostly use them with my special needs studetns. [Feb 18 2017, 12:35 PM] Cristi Miller: *students. [Feb 18 2017, 12:35 PM] BarbaraKirberger: Me too, MTauber [Feb 18 2017, 12:35 PM] Melissa Ann: can't see her drawings [Feb 18 2017, 12:35 PM] Nanette Bratton: Cannot see the drawings! [Feb 18 2017, 12:35 PM] Tiffany Loucks: can't see the drawinbs [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Ambur Carter: I feel like older students need a bit more structure -- especially if they have never worked in a choice-based studio before. [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Tessa Hitz: anyone else having issues? My video cut out about 5 mins ago [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Tamara Hallock: I like to use the dabbers like the fingerprint drawing by Ed Emberley. Here's a cut one: http:// www.pinkieforpink.com/2013/01/valentines-kids-art-projects.html [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Cristi Miller: MTauber, we are slowly working back towards full choice. I think the amount of structure that students need really depends on the particular make-up of the group. [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Joy Balk Hanson: refresh the page if your video cut out. [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Janine Campbell: Here are the drawings: http:// bcwmsart.weebly.com/artventuring-in-middleschool/exploring-depth-and-space [Feb 18 2017, 12:36 PM] Jamie Nicole: Choice is difficult for my students. They really struggle with the less structure and not being "told" what to do. It's so different from anything else they encounter in traditional schooling and I think it takes time to implement successfully. Baby steps [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I can't see her drawings [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Lynette Marie: I showed tons of different examples when I was student teaching- I would walk them through different visual examples and just focus on process not their products [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Missy Roth Perna: some groups have issues handling too much freedom [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Melissa Ann: thank you for posting link to drawings [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Elizabeth Harper: baby steps for sure [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Ambur Carter: Definitely! [Feb 18 2017, 12:37 PM] Andrea Slu: Janine! I miss you -- one of my art teacher inspirations! [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] Sue Mitrano: Students sometimes struggle with having the choice, depending on what they're used to. Just getting them to bring in an object or image (no printers available during class time) can be a challenge. [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: I don't think I could go all choice classroom not at the K-5 level. however I do do it for some lessons., mostly with upper grades [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] Guest9988: “Creative energy is greater than creative control.” -Herve Tullet [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] Cristi Miller: I've also found it's perfectly fine to not go with full choice. Sometimes choice can be "This is the material we will use, you choose the subject." [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] TryScience: Jamie, I really understand the struggle of switching to choice when students are used to "fill-in-the-blank" learning. I have found it takes me two years to get to students to a place where they are flourishing with choice. [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] sceart1: Biggest issue most teachers have with choice is giving up control in the art room. Once trust is established the majority of discipline issues disappear. [Feb 18 2017, 12:38 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I have trouble with the kids coming up with their own ideas and not copying from the internet. I've told them they can use the internet to get ideas but I want them to come up with something they can own. Some of my students who didn't choose to be in my class are very difficult to push to come up with something on their own. It's so much easier to them to copy! UGH! It's a tough balance to give them choice but to also be sure they are using their own creativity. [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: I've heard of PBS's The Art Assignment. I've been meaning to watch this [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] JillannB: what was that website? [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Tamara Hallock: Have you seen the 2 point perspective drawing with a string and tacks: [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Cristi Miller: sceart1, I sort of agree-- but I also feel students have to earn that trust and show me they can handle using the materials with more freedom. [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Danielle Helvie-Juárez: PBS's Learning media I believe [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Guest5106: You can tell she teaches older kids and has probably more advanced kids/smaller classes [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Kattie Leonffu: How can teachers afford sketchbooks when you work in a mostly low-income families school? I'd like to do sketchbooks, but cannot afford to purchase 250+ sketchbooks. [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] artlifewithfarr: PBS art assignment? there is so much better stuff out there now! [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Heather May Schwartz: I do full choice with 5th grade...this is my first year. I have loved loved it! No discipline issues and kids being focused on their work for the entire time has been the biggest benefit so far. [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] SusanDufault: What was the website? [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Melanie Martinez: I think this is great to do with older students [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] Patty89: @katie [Feb 18 2017, 12:39 PM] EShields: I use the folder with the tabs to add in hole punched paper [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Charity Kilgore: We spend a day creating sketchbooks at the beginning of the year in my class. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] JillannB: sketch for schools has inexpensive sketchbooks [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Polly Blair: Make your own sketchbooks with loose paper and binder clips. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Cristi Miller: Kattie, I sometimes have the students make their own sketchbooks using a paper bag as a cover. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Tara Petronic: @kattie - I made sketchbooks this year with recycled this board from testing packets [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: For sketchbooks try www.sketchbookforschools.com [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: @Kattie - I buy a ream of paper and have them make a book [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] MaddyL: I have all my students buy their own sketchbooks and I teach in a low income town. Dollar Store! [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Guest5106: If students are given full all out choice type lessons, how do you accommodate their needs for the large variety of art supplies they will need and in a 45 minute class block? Sounds like a nightmare [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Patty89: @katie--make them using copy paper, tagboard paper (for cover) [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] JillannB: We made sketchbooks this year too. Just for 6th grade. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Beth_Dreyer: I am trying to brainstorm how to do this with my littles, but I LOVE the idea of conferences with the kiddos with thumbnails and sketchbooks before they start! [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] TryScience: Katie - I have purchased plastic folders in cases of 24 from The Dollar Store and fill them with the reject paper from the copy room. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Heather May Schwartz: We use plain paper sketchbooks...they all have made them [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] artlifewithfarr: My students buy sketcbooks. However, you can make a simple sketchbook with paper and hole punch and yarn. Making the cover hard you can use house paint instead of gesso. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Stephanie Ann: @Kattie, I have older grades make their own sketchbooks and use computer paper (free & I'm super nice to the copy people) and we use cardboard from the boxes supplies come in. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @Gerri Gilchrist I thought the same thing last year, but my K-5 has been an easier transition than my 6-8! [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Sue Mitrano: WKED in LA has WKED Art School - great resources - videos, artist profiles, etc. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Jamie Nicole: I like to let them choose the artist or culture they will relate to, through an art investigation before we make the project. Then I teach them the media and differentiate from there as needed. So in grade 7 we do portraits and they choose which artist they research using my guided worksheet. I've also had 9th graders beg me to go back to the traditional way of teaching by spoon feeding them the content. They can't handle it! [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Tara Petronic: Cut myself off- copy paper, and laminated construction paper covers [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: or sketchforschools.com [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Melanie Martinez: My students make their own sketchbooks. Gives them more value when they make them themselves. [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] Ambur Carter: Don't be afraid of choice with younger students!! My K-3 kids are the MOST creative and willing to take risks. Older grades..it is a struggle. They have been told what to do in art for so long they are all about material exploration right now (mixing, splatter, hand painting) [Feb 18 2017, 12:40 PM] bellafiore3: Great transformation of the artwork Janine! Love how choice has invigorated the work [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] TryScience: They write their names on the cover with a wet-erase marker so I can re-use year after year. [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] sceart1: @Christi true but that's is the what learning is about. Relationships :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] Lynette Marie: I had my students create a "memory jar" about things they would like to take with them when they leave from elementary to middle school to high school. its was really impactful and many parents commented on how it was a great conversation starter at home [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] Emily Miller: I'm using post-it notes in lined journals for thumbnail sketches. Less expensive, less daunting to beginning artists. [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] Jamie Nicole: If you use thumbnails, you have to teach them how to do them quite a few times. [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] Kattie Leonffu: Terrific ideas for sketchbooks! This is my first year as a Part-Time Art Teacher (aka Art-on-a-cart). [Feb 18 2017, 12:41 PM] Missy Roth Perna: @kattie my district is very low income...i stock up on newsprint 12x18 and each student 2-5 spends the first day of art creating the cover for their 6x9" sketchbook. a binding staple lets you turn 6 sheets of paper into 24 page booklets [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I love watching my students come up with ideas!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Camille Katherine: Ooooh, Emily! I love the Post-It note idea! [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Cristi Miller: As far as materials, I open centers a few at a time. They start with drawing and maybe cutting/paper tools for example. [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Ashley McLaughlin: Good idea Emily! [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Guest9988: Ideas for choice on an art cart? I struggle with how to bring enough variety of materials to each class. [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] KendallArtsAlot: How is that mask meeting the space requirement? [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: Kattie sent you a praivt message [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Cristi Miller: Then slowly add as they are able to use those well. [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Lacy Leach: My K-4 would love Choice based but how to they learn the basics? [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Tiffany Loucks: I get the idea of choice... I do not quite understand how to get there at the 1-5 level? I'm down to a total of 15 hours of instruction for the year. How do you provide the instruction for all the variety of materials? Clean up? Process instruction? [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Missy Roth Perna: each class has a magazine holder with all their sketchbooks [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @Katie Leonffu I use one-sided recycled paper for sketches- I have gobs of it [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Kris Zylstra: How do you teach choice with limited space and large class sizes? [Feb 18 2017, 12:42 PM] Lian Brehm: Choice based- how to you manage the differences in time spent on projects, some work fast, some super slow. That is a lot to manage. [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Heather May Schwartz: Blog address? [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Tara Petronic: I like the choice idea but my district has art shows every year where parents expect to see the same projects from everyone in that grade or class. Starting to feel the stress already- it's march 23rd! [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Sue Mitrano: What is Janine's blog? [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] artlifewithfarr: great explanation on choice-based classroom--thank you!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Dineen Farley-Sloop: same KRIS [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Missy Roth Perna: as we begin lessons we use our sketchbooks as "safe zones" for making mistakes [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] TimBogatzAOE: More from Janine: she was on Art Ed Radio to talk about her strategies for the first days of school: https:// www.theartofed.com/podcasts/making-rules-making-art-day-one-ep-025/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] TaraCarmichael: inspirational [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] bellafiore3: https://www.youtube.com/user/ theartassignment [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Emily Miller: Another awesome lesson! [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: Where do you store sketchbooks? I have 600 students. LOVE the idea, but I teach K-2, I would need to keep them [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Cristi Miller: Tiffany, short intros and written instructions and videos for each center. [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Janine is @campbellartsoup on Twitter. [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Ambur Carter: Lacy -- you will be surprised! They can learn it alllll on their own. I do 5-10 minute demos where I show them the "basics" [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] MaddyL: Jenny Wright-I filled a bookshelf. Each shelf is a different period [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Melanie Martinez: I use plastic milk crates to store each class periods sketchbooks. [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thank you Janine! [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Jamie Nicole: i think you need a big classroom for full choice as well? [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Desiree Bartlett: I want to do choice base but I have no idea where to start [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] bellafiore3: http://www.theartassignment.com/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Rebecca Schroppe: tks janine, loved it! [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] sceart1: @Melanie - the joy in not having any expectations in child's art is so freeing [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] KendallArtsAlot: Interesting differentiation options but I feel like we need more concrete ways to manage a choice based classroom [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Janine is awesome and so helpful. I met her years ago at our state conference and she was so sharing of ideas. [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Robin Esp: I do choice mostly and LOVE it [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Elizabeth Castor: Thanks for that presentation.... I keep wanting to add choice but get fearful of the outcomes and fear the pressure of administrators having their own "look-fors" [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Missy Hansen: I integrate choice into my daily sketchbook schedule, and in my final art project for each class [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Martha Butcher: Have not changed to choice..... [Feb 18 2017, 12:43 PM] Katrina Croft: I've tried lots of different sketchbook making ideas. My favorite is the quickest, sturdiest, and "free!" get old manilla folders for the cover and use a long-neck staple to staple the center while they're open. I used to use the ring binding machine, but that took way too long. The chopstick and rubber band binding kept falling apart throughout the quarter. [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] MaddyL: In choice base, don't you need to front load how to use all the different mediums? [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @MaddyL Thanks! [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Matt Young: Great job! We have done this at the HS level and it has made a huge difference in the quality and the amount of work that has been taken home :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Olivia Haptonstall: I've changed to choice and it is really great to see student investment in their artwork [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Ambur Carter: http://teachingforartisticbehavior.org/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Robin Esp: I highly recommend TAB [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Missy Roth Perna: I have one shelf with the magazine hold boxes lined up and colorcoded by day of the week...day of the week has all the same color covers [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] devonnestor: I have really been loving the results making a similar change in my classes - K-12! Even Kindergarten has great ideas and are doing really well planning out their ideas. [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @Desiree Bartlett AOE's CBAE class helped me figure out where to start.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] bellafiore3: I've started giving students more and more choice and assigning more open ended assignments. I also use Visual Journals which naturally give students choice [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Nanette Bratton: What is the resource for the PDF's that was talked about? [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] MTauber: For middle school & HS, how do you store student art in your room if you don't have cubbies? I like the milk crate idea for sketchbooks [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Melanie, Great Idea. Thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] theartofed: Where are you on the choice spectrum? https://www.theartofed.com/2014/12/19/where-are-you-on-the-choice-spectrum/ [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Jennifer Musisko: I do some choice but have not fully changed over yet. Still dabbling in choice. [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Debbie Weightman Wade: The advanced art high school classes are all choice based on a theme for the year, any material any technique. Must meet deadlines and minimum goals. [Feb 18 2017, 12:44 PM] Lela Baugh Ulmanis: I use choice based depending on the project and the class. Sometimes I just want my students to experiment! So Im not 100% choice based. [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I have gone to choice this past year as well and have found the theme or big idea a great way to get students thinking. [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Cristi Miller: Maddy, you can do brief instructions on technique, but part of choice is that when students figure out a new way to use something, they become a teacher for their classmates, as well! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] TimBogatzAOE: We have another awesome presentation on choice in hour 4--look for the talk from Kelly Phillips! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Missy Roth Perna: the kids earn Art stamp/stickers i make when they pull facts from my presentations and show examples of understanding [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Darla Kendrick: Love me some Mod Podge! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Jamie Nicole: use the videos to teach techniques! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Robin Esp: being jealous of the swag [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Elizabeth Castor: used OW as an elementary teacher and I am glad to see some HS level projects... may have my art club kids design some school swag to sell at the school sotre [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] MaddyL: Thanks Cristi [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Katrina Croft: @Debbie: What are the themes at your high school? [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: I give lots of choice in each project. We might be working on color theory, but they can come up with their own designs etc. Sometimes it is just techniques but they have lots of choice and I encourage originality and creativity. middle school.....they have not had elementary art so they are a bit nervous on their own totally.... [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] sspechtart: My students are currently making Black History Artworks & could choose the type of artwork. Even with only 5 student I feel like a chicken with my head cut off!!! I can't imagine doing it with a "Regular" sized classroom! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] pattyk1: Have started to introduce choice based art making because it allows students to work at their own pace it works well for differentiating lessons. [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] KendallArtsAlot: I like the idea of project menu, which limits options but allows students to choose what would be the most engaging for them [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: OW is a great fundraiser! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Tara Petronic: Everyone in the school can smell when I'm on a mod podge kick � [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] LeslieQ: Mod Podge is awesome... love that! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Christy Berry: I love my sketchbook! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Lian Brehm: I use this sketchbook for my conference notes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Brenda West Mccullers: love the swag box. thank you so much! [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: Love sketchforschools.com [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] Matt Young: Easy way to begin the change is to take the projects you already do, still focus on the technique you would like the students to learn, but give them the choice on how they would like to visually show their interpretation of the technique. [Feb 18 2017, 12:45 PM] KimExpressed: My favorite is the sketchbook every year. I wish my district would allow me to order them. [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] KendallArtsAlot: Me too Lian [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Elizabeth Castor: skecthbook is the PERFECT portable size! [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Heather May Schwartz: love love twistees! [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Ruth Post: I have to go back and forth between direct instruction and choice based with my kinders when they do not have the skills they need. So don't give up if little ones need more direction. [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Cristi Miller: Also, Maddy, I find it helpful to work with small groups. Perhaps I just do a small extra lesson on a paint technique with just a couple of my painters. Then I can move on and do something else with my printmakers. I also keep binders with examples of techniques in each center. [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Jennifer Musisko: I ordered sketch for schools sketchbooks this year for my whole school k-8. They are great quality and affordable. They customized with our school logo too. [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: never have tried twistee. [Feb 18 2017, 12:46 PM] Tara Petronic: Currently making wire chairs using twisteez with my fifth graders- love them! [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] KimExpressed: I use twistee all the time. [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Tammy Picone Nohelty: I use tab folders with the tab removed, filled with paper and stapled with a long neck stapler. (a long neck stapler is a must). These work great in the elementary art classroom! [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Ambur Carter: Cristi, I do the same! Working on video demos for each studio now. [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] KendallArtsAlot: OOOOH I like the idea of using the twisteez with pieces of cut cardboard [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] LeslieQ: Thats awesome... [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] ARTwithAshley: Anyone else shopping for art supplies online while watching these? I suddenly want to buy everything... More than usual... [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Mary T. Weishaar-Wall: Hmm. I did get a swag box, but not the sketchbook. I'm a little bummed. [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] MaddyL: I really want to try a choice classroom, but with 45 students in 50 minute periods, I just don't see it as being realistic. [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Ambur Carter: Maddy, what grades? [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] pattyk1: But, I have not been able to pull off choice based with 8th graders. Any tips? [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Donna Hartmann Saric: I I order from sketch for schools often... I have never been disappointed! [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Cristi Miller: Ambur, I want to "flip" my classroom. I've been trying to make videos, but I fear I'll have to use the summer to edit and organize them. [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Ruth Post: Isn't the Doodle Hog logo adorable? :) Just sayin' [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @MaddyL getting started is the hardest part [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] TimBogatzAOE: www.arttoremember.com [Feb 18 2017, 12:47 PM] theartofed: If you missed out on the swag box this time around - no worries, you'll have an exclusive opporunity to register early (super early bird price) for the next event in the Summer so that you are guaranteed a swag box! [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Ambur Carter: Ahhhh, I'll definitely be using my summer!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] theartofed: We'll share more info soon! [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] MaddyL: I teach 6,7 and 8 [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] LizAllen: I switched to choice this year for K-8. best thing I've ever done. I am using the TAB model which provides a lot of support and ideas. [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Elizabeth Harper: MaddyL- they need trained slowly [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Cristi Miller: Maddy, baby steps!!! :) Give them limited choices to start out. Perhaps you start by having them use a technique you demo, but they get to choose the subject. [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Missy Roth Perna: @amber I flipped this year...check out my youtube search commax1969...contact me and ill try to help you out [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Martha Butcher: I want to do a project with my 4th graders in the vein of Patrick Daughtery who does large outdoor sculptures using small willow type trees. (Think of the movie Where The Wild Things Are) So far I'm thinking of a really small scale and using wire. I have some telephone wire, but not enough. Any suggestions? [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] EShields: I'm going to be using my summer to make videos as well, my middle schoolers will all be getting chromebooks and I would love to try to get towards a more flipped classroom [Feb 18 2017, 12:48 PM] Cristi Miller: Or you give them a choice between a few media and you choose the subject. :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] Elizabeth Harper: agree LizAllen [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] Cristi Miller: EShields, we're being a 1:1 school too. In the next few years, by 4th-5th graders will be getting chrome books too. [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] Elizabeth Harper: "Draw Around the Room" is a fun starting point for MS [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] tkricha2: I got the swag box but didn't get the tempera cakes :( [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] EShields: That's why Artsonia is so wonderful for the fundraising for supplies [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] Yvonne Yowman-Hall: I allow my students to chose their art mediums only, they work on the same subject matter. I teach 5th a with a six week rotation. 6th grade on a half a year rotation. I have them create a sketchbook at the beginning of the semester. [Feb 18 2017, 12:49 PM] Guest5106: At least you got a box! Lucky [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] Guest5106: I feel totally left out [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] Camille Katherine: Alecia, I love your necklace...it looks like updated twist beads from the 1980s!!! [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] rleirmo: lol....me too [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] EShields: Cristi Miller: yes I think our 4th and 5th will eventually be as well [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] KimExpressed: You can registered at deep discount with the afterpass and be sure to get the swag in August [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: Eshilds we are one on one chrome 1 to in 3 -5th am working on a bunch of stuff now . using google drive to share let me kno. [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] Ladyuxen: It's okay. Don't feel left out. [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] cliveartroom: Thank you Camille! :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:50 PM] Melanie Bridgman Britten: I use cupcakes as the topic for my pop-art section. We finish up actually decorating the cupcakes we design. My students love it! [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] Lian Brehm: I introduced Wayne Theibaud cupcakes, cakes, (forshortened 3D drawing shapes/ovals) and gumball machines (K-1) this year . Used water soluable oil pastels, and Q-tips and water. [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] Patty89: Did cupcakes with my 6th graders, both 3D and 2D. [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] Ladyuxen: Theibauld thank you! His name was escaping me [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] JillannB: Is there any place I can order trays to hold tempra cakes? The art teacher that was before me ordered tons of tempra cakes but there is nothing to put them in to use. I love the tray she has. [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] Guest5106: this is like a Wine 'n' Paint Along [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] Jamie Nicole: to implement choice they cold choose their favorite dessert or candy? [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] sceart1: I can't recommend Art-to-Remember enough. I have been using them for 20 years and the process has become super easy. [Feb 18 2017, 12:51 PM] artlifewithfarr: I have been doing a Friday "free art" lesson, where I put all these art materials out and let them decide what to make. It is there favorite thing. I do a feedback form at the end of the term and they love the imagination and creative opportunity of those days...glue guns, pastels, chalk, cardboard, bubble-warp...I collect all kinds of stuff and they create the most amazing things! [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] Elizabeth Harper: blick sells different holders but cupcake trays work [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] cliveartroom: They definitely could do whatever dessert they wanted Jamie! [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] artlifewithfarr: their [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] Martha Butcher: Pop art cupcakes are a great idea. Thanks! Also use the Newer Older in Lindsey's video! [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] Cristi Miller: Jillann, I use muffin pans from Wallmart for my tempera cakes! [Feb 18 2017, 12:52 PM] JillannB: Thanks! I never thought of muffin pans. [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Deborah Eittreim: we ordered sketchbooks for everyone k-12 and the kids totally love them. I have middle and high school kids fill them up and ask for another. Oh yes, I support that! [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Lindsey Skidmore Moss: muffin pans are a great idea... got to get some! [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Cristi Miller: Jillann, I found them cheap! Like a dollar each! :) [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Lian Brehm: These cakes fit perfectly into those small flat bottomed watercolor cups. [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] JillannB: Thanks Christi. [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Melanie Martinez: I get my pans at the Dollar Tree or .99 store. [Feb 18 2017, 12:53 PM] Ambur Carter: Deborah, how many students?! Wish I could do that! [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] KimExpressed: Do these work like pan watercolor paints? [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Elizabeth Harper: yes Kim- but bolder [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Laura Geiger: Deborah, do you allow your students to take them home? If so, do you have a problem with them loosing the sketchbooks? [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Elizabeth Harper: my kids love them [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Ambur Carter: Ooooo, that is some nice color [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Melanie Martinez: I also use the Dollar Tree deviled egg trays for my acrylic paints [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] KimExpressed: I've got some Artsonia $; maybe this is a must purchase! [Feb 18 2017, 12:54 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: tempera cakes vs. liquid...GO! [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] KimExpressed: Less mess??? [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] Elizabeth Harper: definitely Kim [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] cliveartroom: The Jack Richeson semi-moist tempera cakes are AMAZING! Such vivid color and so easy to use! [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] Kristin: I missed it - which paints are these? [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I feel the liquid paints are better for mixing [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] LizAllen: cakes for the little ones, tempera for older [Feb 18 2017, 12:55 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Artlifewithfarr I do something similar but we call it the mystery bucket challenge. They never know what is in there and are free to create. [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Ambur Carter: I start my K-1 with cakes, if they prove they can take care of those & brushes, they get liquid! [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] pattyk1: Tempera cakes are fab for k-3. I love them too! [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: how / where do the little mix the cakes?? [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: little kids [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Lian Brehm: Black tempera cakes work great for Sumi-e brush paintings. Load brush, and use regular small plastic plates as a palette. We did Year of the Rooster brush paintings with Grade 4 & 5. Examples on FB- Danville School PreK-6 Elementary Art, Vermont [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Elizabeth Harper: mix on their papers or in an old wc tray lid [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: wow love how bright those tempera cakes look. Must order some [Feb 18 2017, 12:56 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: thanks [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] pattyk1: Whats the difference between Art to Remember and Kids Kreations? Better % for the school? [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] Rachel Beauvais: This prescribed project is totally contradictory to the last session. It sure is hard to encourage teachers to go choice when the projects you suggest are "repeat after me." [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] Britney Spencer: I allow my student to get their own paints in the classroom, and i have noticed there is some issues with the amount of paint they should get even when I have them use the tiny trays. The cakes make it way easier so their is no guessing involved-- NO WASTE! [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] Janna DeWan: Rachael, exactly what I was thinking. [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: What's the difference between art to remember and square 1 art? [Feb 18 2017, 12:57 PM] KimExpressed: Guess if you are looking to make some $; you do a directed drawing project as opposed to choice. [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Ambur D. Carter: I was thinking that too Rachel aha.. [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] LizAllen: I still do demos like this with choice, then the students can choose to make their own or not. [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Stephanie Ann: They're all the same concept. Theres art to remember, square 1, display my art. The percentages may be different. The PTA always runs these in my district [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Elizabeth Harper: agree LixAllen [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] pattyk1: Nice idea-black tempera for sum painting. What kind of brush did you use? [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Elizabeth Harper: LizAllen [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Cristi Miller: Liz, that's how I do it too. I always tell them, "This is how I do this, but you can go about it a different way." [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I inherited square 1 art as a fundraiser [Feb 18 2017, 12:58 PM] AtR_Kelly: @pattyk1 and @jlwilliams78Jw - this is Kelly from Art to Remember. We allow you to customize your profit percentage based on your needs. It's a very flexible program! [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Lian Brehm: Bamboo brushes, I got them in Chinatown in MYC- super cheap (I think $1.00 each). [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Rachel, we want to present a variety of ideas from a lot of great teachers--they all do things differently. You can watch everything and choose what might work for you! [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Sara Baird: Jillian B- If the cakes are round, you can use a muffin tin. It they're square, try a tackle box divider. [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Lonna Tucker: I am moving from liquid tempera back to biggie cakes for a while due to massive paint waste. [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] KimExpressed: Anyone do ARTOME'? [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Deborah Eittreim: actually only ones who can't talk them home are the K-5. in the MS and HS there are sketchbook points to bring them daily. They might not bring them for a couple of days but the kids lose points, yet are still responsible to do the sketchbook assignments on loose paper and put them into their sketchbook. Many kids ask for a personal sketchbook and I give them one left over from past students who didn't want them. [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] EShields: I love tempera cakes [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Ladyuxen: with this project you could teach warm and cool colors too [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Ambur D. Carter: My Artome art show this year will be all choice art, most of it looks COMPLETELY different from this. I am super interested to see how it goes [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] JillannB: Thanks Sara [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Charity Kilgore: I did Artome last year.. and this year.. LOVE Them! [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Jamie Nicole: I put tempera in ketchup bottles! the upside down ones [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Olivia Haptonstall: I did that too, Jaime [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] KimExpressed: Using ARTOME for first time this June. Suggestions? [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Olivia Haptonstall: It has really helped with waste [Feb 18 2017, 12:59 PM] Kristen Strawsine: there is a chart that compares different art fundraisers https://www.theartofed.com/2012/06/08/the-ultimate- guide-to-art-fundraisers/ [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] EShields: I definitely want to use my sketchbooks as more "do-now" and exit ticket activities for all my students [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Laura Geiger: Thanks Deborah! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] pattyk1: I'll have to check out chinatown in NYC-near me-great info. Thanks! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Guest7304: My second year with Artome and it's so easy! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Jamie Nicole: Yes and made me want to paint with them more and let them get their own paints [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Ambur D. Carter: Kim -- organize and get it done early!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Melanie Martinez: Tempra Cakes look really easy to use. I think I am going to move from liquid cakes! yay [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] pattyk1: thanks for the fundraising chart! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Melissa Ann: We did one with our PTA. I didn't have to do the labels, collection or sorting and we split profit 50/50. They made the project in art, and PTA did all the work! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] LeslieQ: Love the cupcakes! [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] ssbeirne: What's the hashtag to share our photos? [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] misscostello2: i use both cakes and liquid for all elem ages. so important for them to use both. understandably if u r art on a cart the cakes are the way to go. my temp liquid is keep in stackable icecube trays (rubbermaid brand) i need 10 they stack neatly in 2, large containers w/lid. put colors in the same pockets in each tray to expedite refilling. i can refill all 10 in 4minutes with 10 colors. these temp cakes in the presentation are worth trying out thought. [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] artlifewithfarr: I find there are many students who don't use the whole sketchbook. They can hand them to kids taking the next class. Some students are highly invested in art class, and others are there because they have to be...so you can be environmentally savvy and save money by sharing sketchbooks. Many of my lower income students can't get them. [Feb 18 2017, 1:00 PM] Ladyuxen: my dog heard the siren from the computer and started barking [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Stephanie Ann: @melissa Thats so nice they split it! PTA keeps all the profits & I have them do the artwork [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Jamie Nicole: Using the cakes seem to discourage color mixing, but liquid tempera encourages it more when you use flat pallets. [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] TimBogatzAOE: ssbeirne: You can use #artednow to share! [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Janine Campbell: I am sorry those images were blurry in my presentation. If you are interested in seeing the real-time change to choice in my classroom, please check out my classroom blog: www.bcwmsart.weebly.com [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] artlifewithfarr: thanks Janaine [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] rleirmo: I wish I could respond under each persons comment. Back to 7th grade behavior, art teachers in my district have their own Class Dojo. They can create classroom rewards. And parents can get notifications if they choose to. Some teachers post it up on the their screens as a contest, others have it on their phones. [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Thank you, Janine! [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Leah Keller: Ha!! Noon whistle here too!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Tiffany Loucks: THANKS [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Melissa Ann: Stephanie - it was. I think they recognized that I have a lot on my plate. [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] Sara Baird: Art to Remember is very user friendly. I do online ordering only. It's way easier than collecting money. [Feb 18 2017, 1:01 PM] theartofed: See you all in 10 minutes!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Janine Campbell: Thank you, Tim! Thanks to AOE for the opportunity to share! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Ladyuxen: see ya'll in 10! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Tara Petronic: I presented info to my pta about splitting the profits from our fundraiser - this year they are helping to pay for an artist in residence! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Beth_Dreyer: Awesome conference so far! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Jamie Nicole: Bathroom break! haha [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] TimBogatzAOE: On break for 10 minutes . . . see you soon! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Deborah Eittreim: This year I ordered the 2 inch cakes of tempera and started out with one color each for kinders. I now have about 95% of kids who knows NOT to mix colors on the cakes but on a different plate. Also the kids know how to clean brushes, point them and put them into the containers brush up! [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Stephanie Ann: @Melissa, this year they didn't even contact me, the papers just magically showed up in my room [Feb 18 2017, 1:02 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: I actually miss that sound. They don't use it here in NC. In Ohio I heard it every first Monday of the month. [Feb 18 2017, 1:03 PM] Stephanie Ann: @deborah my kiddos know how to clean them and everything. The problem is the other art teacher uses them as well but doesn't have the same expectations. I've had to clean modge podge off the cakes. [Feb 18 2017, 1:04 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @Jamie Nicole I don't think the tempera cakes discourage mixing... if kids only have certain colors they have to mix to create the other colors. Regardless of type of paint, I think it's all in what kids have available and what experimenting you allow/encourage your students to do [Feb 18 2017, 1:04 PM] Melissa Ann: @stephanie - they asked my first year and I declined because time frame was too short (they wanted in time for xmas and asked in maybe november) I also pointed out that I already do Artsonia, so for me it was overlap (and I get 100% of artsonia). [Feb 18 2017, 1:05 PM] Tamara Hallock: using copy paper, students can make sketchbooks [Feb 18 2017, 1:05 PM] Stephanie Ann: I need artsonia in my life [Feb 18 2017, 1:05 PM] rleirmo: I am in a title one school and art fundraisers do not do well. Our school is only allowed to have 2 total fundraisers a year. Food sells. I am lucky PTO shares their profits with me. [Feb 18 2017, 1:05 PM] Melissa Ann: I could never work at a desk job. OMG I've been eating non-stop for 2 hours. [Feb 18 2017, 1:05 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: My kids mix tempera cake paint all the time - I show them how to mix it on the tray vs. color, or on their paper. [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Abby Schukei: #ArtEdNow [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Vanessa Powell: Haha! Melissa Ann, I ran out to my weekly weigh in and came back with a doughnut! [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: For sketchbooks, I have students fold 10 sheets of paper in half, then use a pamphlet stitch to bind them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZpMG8FCK_0 [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Tessa Hitz: Melissa how do you manage Artsonia and keep organized? I've got K-12 but only try to do Artsonia with the younger students (the older ones don't have as much interest/parents don't care as much for them) [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Vanessa Powell: SO excited to see Abby Schukel! [Feb 18 2017, 1:06 PM] Elizabeth Castor: I have come to love the color mixing even on the cakes... We have a little tutorial about how to clear off mixed paint when needed and the "hockey pucks: the 2-3" rounds can really take that abuse and still be lovely [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: For making sketchbooks: http://abookfull.tumblr.com/post/23683128084/3holepamphlet [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] LeslieQ: :) A lot of great ideas! [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] Kimberlyn Foster: I was in the kitchen.... Are we taking a break now? [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] TimBogatzAOE: On break for just a couple more minutes! [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] Kimberlyn Foster: Cool... thanks Tim. [Feb 18 2017, 1:08 PM] Martha Butcher: Will we be able to access this chat after the conference? I'm missing some good information, I'm sure! [Feb 18 2017, 1:09 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I think they post the chat after [Feb 18 2017, 1:09 PM] TimBogatzAOE: We are planning on making the chat archive available after the conference. [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Darla Kendrick: These Tempera Cakes are AMAZING!! I'm definitely getting these for my new school [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Denise Rettinger DeAngelis: my husband got the hint that i'm busy and ordered pizza for lunch for me and kids...yay. good hubby! [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Melissa Ann: @tessa - I use an ipad. The kids 3rd-5th upload their own. It takes them 5x longer than me, but I'm learning to let it go! I can do a whole class in less than 10 minutes. The app is great. [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Karen Jaret Karnuta: @denise - Good hubby award!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] LeslieQ: Nice... :) [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] EShields: Oh good about the archive of the chat, I don't want to miss all this good stuff going on over here as well! [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Carly Stockley: summer conference discount is awesome [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Denise, that is awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 1:10 PM] Lela Baugh Ulmanis: I have so many questions and wonder if anyone teaching HS who is here have any of the same questions and concerns I have! [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] LeslieQ: :) [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Lela, there are a lot of HS teachers here--post away with your questions! [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: @Tessa --- For my Artsonia organization I use a LOT of binder clips and I made little double sided cards to clip with them. One side says Published (and is one color), flip side says Take Pics (and is another color). I have 800+ students, so I had to figure SOMETHING out. ;) [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] Elizabeth Castor: yeah !!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] Melissa Ann: AGree tessa. when I taught HS, the kids didn't care at all about artsonia [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] Matt Young: Lela Baugh feel free to email me with any HS questions. would love to help :) [email protected] [Feb 18 2017, 1:11 PM] Kimberlyn Foster: I absolutely loved Janine Campbell. There was such a genuine approach that students really responded to and she has such a love and devotion to what she is doing. It is contagious! X [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] leah_yurk: I'm so excited about hearing from Mike!!! Love these books :) [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] KendallArtsAlot: Oh man! I love all of them [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Missy Roth Perna: i use the clips in different colors red needs grades, yellow artsonia pics, green ready for display [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Melissa Ann: Love the Getting to know books! [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] KendallArtsAlot: Andy Warhol was a fun one [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Missy Roth Perna: i remove them as the job is done [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Nikki: Dollar Tree sketchbooks are a good product for middle school use. I have used them for a few years. Just use a high capacity stapler to put one staple at the top because the binding fails. I buy for a dollar and sell them for a dollar to my students. [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Tessa Hitz: @Sarah - brilliant. That's my issue - organization! I've got about 200 kids total but they are k-12 so keeping everyone organized and getting permissions is a mess some years [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Guest6741: Love the Warhol for the 4th graders! [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] LeslieQ: Love his books! [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] KimExpressed: Use these books and videos all the time! [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Yeah Mike V! [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I love the voice for Andy Warhol...probably my favorite. [Feb 18 2017, 1:12 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: @Tessa, I also clip on color- coded class code labels (KD = K Mrs. DeVaugh, etc) [Feb 18 2017, 1:13 PM] KimExpressed: Keep freezing!!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:13 PM] Sara Baird: I was so pumped in elementary school when this series comes out! I now use them in my classroom. [Feb 18 2017, 1:13 PM] Melissa Ann: I did not know he did books other than artists [Feb 18 2017, 1:13 PM] Nora G: Mine too!

[Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: Oooh.... I'm seeing some of his work/books that I don't have yet. [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] BVSDVisualArts: I love his awesome illustrations! [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Glenwood_Art: I got a lot of these over the summer. [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Katherine Svoboda: mine buffering [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] sspechtart: I want to be an Illustrator... [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Hey! I'm from Glen Ellyn! How cool! [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: I love this series of books! Thank you for making learning about Art fun for children! [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Martha Butcher: I love maps! [Feb 18 2017, 1:14 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: so cool seeing the illustrations [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Kathy Ferguson Gibson: I teach high school in an area with little to no arts support. Students have not had any art exposure in the schools until [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Karen Jaret Karnuta: I'm surprised at how dark his studio it [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: i would love to show this to my students [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Lindsey Skidmore Moss: revised editions? cant wait!!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Karen Jaret Karnuta: is [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Tammy Picone Nohelty: His books are great. I have the famous artist video series. I wish more of his books were converted to video. My elementary kids love them. [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] Polly Blair: LOVED the Art Ed Radio interview with Mike! [Feb 18 2017, 1:15 PM] artlifewithfarr: Can we watch this later with our students? ART ED NOW? [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] Melissa Ann: Was thinking same question art life with farr [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] EShields: me too [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] Missy Roth Perna: me too [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] Tara Petronic: @artlifewithfarr- was thinking the same thing! [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] Guest9096: I was wondering the same thing farr! [Feb 18 2017, 1:16 PM] Glenwood_Art: i love how "old" school he does..

However kids are not allowed to sign into our internet. They have to have their own data plan.

[Feb 18 2017, 1:40 PM] Sue Mitrano: Carly Stockley, If you went to a school with fine arts or have one nearby - find alums who are illustrators and get them to come discuss their careers.

Print them out and let students reference. Students aren't allowed to carry their phones but with the handouts it would work [Feb 18 2017, 1:41 PM] Missy Hansen: Good stuff, love the basic circuitry ideas [Feb 18 2017, 1:41 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thank you for all the great info!

Weishaar-Wall: Erin Switzer: There are answered questions on the screen under Jessica. I had to click on the Total Answered Questions to access them. They aren't clickable, to read, as far as I can tell when the presenters are on-- just when Jessica is on. [Feb 18 2017, 1:44 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Their handout for the conference is pretty amazing too: https://www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/Scott- Modler-Handout.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 1:44 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I taught this in my mixed media class. the kids that really got into it loved it but I had a very large group of boys who were dumped in my class who hated doing this. So sad for me. I need to come up with a better way to engage them and get them excited about it. [Feb 18 2017, 1:44 PM] Cristi Miller: Is there a link to how to do that LED project we just saw? [Feb 18 2017, 1:44 PM] Cristi Miller: Just trying to figure out what I need for that. :) [Feb 18 2017, 1:45 PM] Kelly Phillips: Does anyone do sketch books in elementary school?

It got lost in the shuffle (for me) because I wasn't as consistent as I had been with upper grades. [Feb 18 2017, 1:46 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: This makes a great adult class! I've taught this a few times very successfully! [Feb 18 2017, 1:46 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: I make sketch book at the 2-5 grade level we make them but not as an jornal as they are taking about [Feb 18 2017, 1:46 PM] Tracey Taylor: @Kelly, I was just thinking about how to do this with my el ed kiddos, too...

[Feb 18 2017, 1:47 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: Maybe lower grades could use for vocabulary [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] Tessa Hitz: I always have sketchbooks on hand for early finishers and drying time etc [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] Lacy Leach: Will all these links to downloads be available on the website? [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] pattyk1: I hope so. Can't keep up with all of the info/links being posted [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] bggracie124: I hope so too that we'll be able to access links outside of AOE [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] Tamara Hallock: I create 1/4 or 1/2 page of biographical info about an artist that I use in my bell ringer. I show a short video about a new artist and then pass out the bio info. Students attach it to their sketchbook. They write 6 sentences in response to learning about them. The next day we may do a sketch of one of that artists' works. [Feb 18 2017, 1:48 PM] bellafiore3: Visual Journals are a great way to push all discipline areas to visually document their thinking processes....imagine documenting visually in math or science or social studies [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @Lacy the are all available in the After Pass! [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: i start the year in the 5th grade with a 5 word auto bio that I then turn into an artwork. http:// www.artsonia.com/museum/gallery.asp?project=1199986 [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] bggracie124: This journal approach is fantastic! [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: me too goes so fast.. Hope the links are available afterwards/ So much great info.. [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Kelly Phillips: Some of my kids carry their around with them and bring them to class with ideas.... its a great "backpack" where they collect ideas that extends their art-making beyond my once a week 45 min class class [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Kattie Leonffu: LOL! I don't think any of us can keep up with all the links/info being posted! :) [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Linda Krecker Brett: Gerrie Very cool [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Art Rume: Sketchbooks are a must to stimulate the creative process. Love the quotes! [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Tessa, do you give early finishers a task or allow free draw? I would be concerned at some point with a few students using up the sketchpad in a couple of days! [Feb 18 2017, 1:49 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: makes me want to pull out my visual journal!!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:50 PM] Lacy Leach: Cool! Thanks [Feb 18 2017, 1:50 PM] misscostello2: All of my gr5 artists have sketchbks purchased by our PTA and they have a weekly homewrk assignment.

[Feb 18 2017, 1:51 PM] Ali Wesson: Early finishers pull prompts out of a bin and I tell them they can only use one per class period this way they don't fill the whole book in one class. [Feb 18 2017, 1:51 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Ali- Thank you [Feb 18 2017, 1:51 PM] pattyk1: I made sketchbooks with my 3-5 graders that have plastic baseball cards sheets in them too for artist trading cards. They have not been able to use them up yet- I hope they do by the end of the year and i should have done them with the 1st-6th grades [Feb 18 2017, 1:51 PM] Martha Butcher: Jasper Johns and letters/numbers. Get little ones to see these things as shapes and lines. Not a new idea, but one I've been trying to introduce to these learners. [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Deborah Eittreim: always have extra sketchbooks! If a child K-12 shows me his or her full sketchbook, they get another! And another, and another! Trust me, it won't happen often, but when kids know they can get their ideas out into a place they will control it does make a difference. [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Kattie Leonffu: I LOVE the idea of artist trading cards! [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Kelly Phillips: @pattyk1 that's a great idea!

[Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] pattyk1: artist trading cards and drawing prompts for earlier finishers are a good thing to do. When they do get free draw time they love it!

[Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Susan, I found an arrow on the right side of the ask a question box after the presentation was over... I clicked and could see all questions. [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Martha Butcher: I like the trading card idea too! [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] SusanDufault: Awesome!! [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: These ideas are great for my middle schoolers [Feb 18 2017, 1:52 PM] Missy Hansen: Art prompt bin, love it!

[Feb 18 2017, 2:26 PM] Lian Brehm: You can also use drywall mud over building foam sheets for 3D sculpture. [Feb 18 2017, 2:27 PM] Glenwood_Art: @lian brehm THANKS i was wondering [Feb 18 2017, 2:27 PM] ssbeirne: My students love this... https:// store.schoolspecialty.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpItmDspRte.jsp? minisite=10206&item=508772 Can add it to any paint [Feb 18 2017, 2:27 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Thanks! [Feb 18 2017, 2:27 PM] Matt Young: Used a lot with HS kids. They really love the texture. [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] Carly Stockley: trying to figure out what drywall and mud is? [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] Missy Roth Perna: i see a 5th grade harlem ren. project evolving here [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] Melissa Ann: joint compound Carly - get it from lowe's. We used to tint ours with paint to build up layers of color [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] Luke Nielsen: Drywall joint compound for sheet rock. [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: Would you use this for elementary? [Feb 18 2017, 2:28 PM] theartofed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Joint_compound [Feb 18 2017, 2:29 PM] ssbeirne: How do you mix it without the powder getting everywhere? [Feb 18 2017, 2:29 PM] Carly Stockley: cheers [Feb 18 2017, 2:29 PM] Glenwood_Art: would you be able to put this onto a round or curved surface? [Feb 18 2017, 2:29 PM] ssbeirne: I always get bronchitis when I use it- yes, I am very sensitive! [Feb 18 2017, 2:29 PM] KimExpressed: Yeah, maybe not elementary [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Luke's handout has SO many great ideas, and a really thorough explanation of his processes: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/LukeNielsen.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] Megan Rose: How about Modeling Paste for elementary students… would that be similar to this drywall mud? [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] Lian Brehm: Oldder Elementary is OK. Make sure use the same guidelines as clay for disposal/washing. Use papertowels and buckets so it doesn't clog the sink. [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] Kelly Phillips: @elizabethharper to answer your early questions about loading leather hard.... they dry SO slow in their so I just preheat my kiln for like 5 or 6 hours to dry them out. Works for all my kiddos clay work that's too wet. [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] TimBogatzAOE: I've done this with upper elementary before. [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] Cristi Miller: I personally wouldn't do this at the elementary level, just due to the dust and such. [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] Kelly Phillips: oh wow my grammar on that was so bad! [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] rleirmo: yes, you lost me at dust [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] artlifewithfarr: looks fun...lol lost me at dust [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] rleirmo: but, I still want to try it myself [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] artlifewithfarr: lol [Feb 18 2017, 2:30 PM] bellafiore3: This drywall thing is making me wonder if I could do Image transfers onto the drywall surface could be really cool 3D photo transfers! I think I'd gesso or mod podge it first then do the transfer [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Looks like a great project for highschoolers! I love the 3-d affect and the idea that you can place empasis on what you would like to be 3-D. [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Margaret McDonald: Good for an ART Club [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Lian Brehm: Drywall compound comes in two different set times- read the label- longer drying = longer work time. [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: Cool but not for my elementary students [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Kelly Phillips: oh wow that's beautiful [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Carly Stockley: oh its building plaster, translating to Australian can be tricky :) [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Emily Miller: Thank you for something for high school!! [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] bellafiore3: I've had students use modeling paste, but this looks like it's cheaper and could be easier to work with [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Megan Rose: Anyone use modeling paste to get a similar look w/ younger kiddos? [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: wow that fist looks great! [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] KimExpressed: Looks great! [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: That fist looks awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 2:31 PM] artlifewithfarr: much cheaper cool [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] theartofed: Who wants to try using dry wall mud in their art room now!?! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] SusanDufault: I'm in!! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Tessa Hitz: Me! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Sue Mitrano: Can someone post the link for the Mod Podge Debuffet lesson? Can't find on the PLAID website [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Emily Miller: I'm ready! My students will LOVE this! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Missy Roth Perna: me! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: I am all in ! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Jessica Nilacala Kreitzer: Does anyone know if he has all of the students use the same image in this project? [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Tara McNutt: I use drywall joint compound to make paper clay! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Tessa Hitz: I'm in the process of planning my Art Foundations next project....changing my idea! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Kelly Phillips: @elizabethharper maybe I'll write an article on the clay looks and talk about my ways to fire wet clay....but feel free to message me at AOE if you want! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Lacy Leach: How could the dry wall mud be used in Elementary!? [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Guest2769: wow...that drywall stuff looks really cool! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] Emily Miller: I think mixed classes - I know lit teachers making portraits of writers! [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] artlifewithfarr: it cut off again [Feb 18 2017, 2:32 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Luke also has a handful of great videos on AOE, albeit from when he still had a beard: https://www.theartofed.com/ author/luke-m-nielsengmail-com/ [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Elizabeth Harper: thanks @kelly phillips! [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Thinking about creating drywall texture boards for my students. Wonder how it will hold up to printmaking [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] LeslieQ: :) [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Carly Stockley: loved his fire painting lesson [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] KimExpressed: Congrats Jennifer and Marty [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Yay congrats both of you!!

Awesome job!! [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Lynette Marie: Congrats! [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Hoping [Feb 18 2017, 2:33 PM] Cristi Miller: Lacy, I wouldn't use it at the elementary level... I'm too concerned with the dust and such and only having about 5 min between classes, even the classes not using it would probably be breathing that because we wouldn't be able to get it all out of there. [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Kelly!!! It's time! [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] Kelly Phillips: Any TABber's out there!!!?? [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Nope lol congrats to the winners [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] Tessa Hitz: working slowly toward TAB [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] LizAllen: TABer here..... [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] KimExpressed: Can't you teach TAB without being Tab? [Feb 18 2017, 2:34 PM] Kelly Phillips: That's awesome Tessa! [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Kelly Phillips: Hey Kim :) [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Alyssa Manning: What's TAB? [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: I'm really unsure about TAB [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Polly Blair: Teaching for Artistic Behavior [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Kelly has SO many resources for people who are just starting to implement TAB. I'll start to post them here. [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I am teaching using Tab and Choice [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Tracy Giblin Fox: I really want to start TAB in my classroom [Feb 18 2017, 2:35 PM] Elizabeth Harper: playing around with different forms of CBAE & TAB to find the right fit...

[Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] TimBogatzAOE: #2: Sculpture Setup: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/Phillips-Sculpture-Center-Set- Up-.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Any art teachers from an Artful Learning school by chance? [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] devonnestor: We are doing lots of goal writing, centers, and choice in my K-12 classroom recently. The kids are so happy and full of great ideas and growth! [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] Kelli : I have used drywall mud with elementary...I do not sand it due to dust. I used it with VanGogh for a litle texture. We add just a little bit on a piece of mat board for a little extra texture. [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] Guest7728: Is the conference over?? I forgot about it. [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] TimBogatzAOE: #3: Transformation Test: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/Phillips-Transformation-Test- Checklist.docx [Feb 18 2017, 2:36 PM] Tracy Giblin Fox: I teach UPK-6 and plan on working over the summer to redesign my curriculum.

How does it work for you? Did you roll it out all at once or gradually implement over time [Feb 18 2017, 2:37 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: sign up for the summer [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Kelly also does an AMAZING job of explaining how to open centers, and how to implement a lot of TAB ideas at the elementary level. All of her AOE articles can be found here: https:// www.theartofed.com/author/kellyphillips/ [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] Cristi Miller: Abbie, I did it gradually over time. That way, expectations could be set and such. I open centers a few at a time. [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @Abbie Willwerth I think K-5 has been easier than 6-8! [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] Abbie Willwerth: Thank you :) [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] artlifewithfarr: http:// teachingforartisticbehavior.org/ [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] Abbie Willwerth: Thats the opposite of what I would expect [Feb 18 2017, 2:38 PM] Elizabeth Harper: K-5 doesn't have as been "old habits" to change so to speak [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] Cristi Miller: Abbie, it's because the littles are more focused on the process, so they're keen to explore and try new things. [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] Sarah King Hartzler: Is TAB something that is more often used at the elementary/middle school age groups? [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] Elizabeth Harper: my 6-8 expected a lot more direction but are growing with it 6 months in [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Artful Learning is a learning philosophy where learning is accessed through the arts school wide. https:// leonardbernstein.com/artful-learning [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] LizAllen: I teach k-8 and rolled it out to all at once at the beginning of the year. opened one center at a time, while the students/artists got used to directing their own learning. [Feb 18 2017, 2:39 PM] rleirmo: Thank you Kelli, I think I will try it in elementary [Feb 18 2017, 2:40 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I think TAB makes an adult think about their own art and what they are doing. I know it works that way for me. [Feb 18 2017, 2:40 PM] KimExpressed: I wonder how many students TAB classrooms manage during a day [Feb 18 2017, 2:40 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: My school is a Legacy Artful Learning School [Feb 18 2017, 2:40 PM] Elizabeth Harper: I started by offering a project example kids could choose to do if they really felt "stuck" or they could design their own [Feb 18 2017, 2:40 PM] Abbie Willwerth: I'm very interested in this style, but kind of overwhelmed at the idea of switching as a new teacher..it's reassuring to see all the success stories [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Elizabeth Harper: I have 28 different classes a week [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Tessa Hitz: Love the mystery bag challenge [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: can someone define TAB? I'm not familiar with this. [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] rleirmo: Storing ongoing projects could get tricky [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Cristi Miller: Abbie, use baby steps! You can start with limited choice. For example, you start by letting them choose between two media but you give them the subject for their artwork. [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Cristi Miller: Once they are managing that well, you can give them more options and open more centers. [Feb 18 2017, 2:41 PM] Katherine Svoboda: TAB: Teaching for Artistic Behavior...there are different behavior artists exhibit [Feb 18 2017, 2:42 PM] Elizabeth Harper: each class has a folder and a 3D box, same as I would do in a regular teacher-directed room [Feb 18 2017, 2:42 PM] Tessa Hitz: @Melanie - it's a focus more on the student thinking like an artist. It promotes studio management behaviors and a focus on the creative process [Feb 18 2017, 2:42 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Thank You Katherine. I'm an old art teacher back in the game after being gone from the public schools for a very long time. [Feb 18 2017, 2:42 PM] Tessa Hitz: @Elizabeth - are you in a smaller school with many grades? [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] KimExpressed: Hot glue for Elementary??? [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Melanie, I am old too but I am always discovering new things. lol [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Old compared to a lot of these presenters. Not REALLY old. lol [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Elizabeth Harper: yes- I have a K-12 building, I teach K-6, 1/2 of 8th grade & HS pottery [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Cristi Miller: My admins would NOT be happy about the kids using hot glue--- not even the low temp. [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] JillannB: My 3rd graders use low temp, hot glue guns! [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Lela Baugh Ulmanis: kimexperssed: there are low heat hot glue that would work. [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: good to know I'm not alone! [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: we do glass fussing with 2nd graders! [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Luanne Humphrey: I teach 30 different cc [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Well, I am really old, getting ready to retire. lol [Feb 18 2017, 2:43 PM] Tessa Hitz: @Elizabeth - I feel the struggle K-12 for me [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: my school is crazy though. :) [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Erin Fry: My 3rd and up usre Cool shot hot glue guns [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Elizabeth Harper: I at least know what to expect from year-to-year! [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Cristi Miller: Jillann, I tried that before... heard about it after school. No glue guns for ours. [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] KimExpressed: I use low temp glue guns with older kids in art club but regular classrooms with behaviors....I'd be afraid. Really afraid. [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Luanne Humphrey: I teach 30 different classes. Storage is a challenge. [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: yep, all of my friends are getting ready to retire as well. sigh [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Robin Esp: My 3-5th love hot glue. Have to limit it. [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] Luanne Humphrey: Love these ideas [Feb 18 2017, 2:44 PM] artlifewithfarr: this is super cool and i love her ideas [Feb 18 2017, 2:45 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I am middle level. I have found that with choice and TAB I have many more individual conversations with students that I would never have otherwise. [Feb 18 2017, 2:45 PM] artlifewithfarr: i love the size or meter! [Feb 18 2017, 2:45 PM] rleirmo: me too [Feb 18 2017, 2:45 PM] Sue Nangle: do kids use hot glue by them selves? [Feb 18 2017, 2:45 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Such a great introduction to TAB!

I wonder how she cleans up [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: my administration would freak she is a neat freak and I am not! [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] Polly Blair: And taking LOADS of notes!

Something for us to think about [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] Sara Zallar: I'm curious how TAG addresses and incorporates Elements and Principles of Design and craftsmanship? Is that less important? [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] Elizabeth Harper: @KendallArtsAlot my kids clean up! [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] Luke Nielsen: Thanks to everyone for joining the drywall mud presentation..... And to Tim and everyone else at AOE, the beard is back. Filming happened to catch me right after our football team shaved their team beards. [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] LizAllen: The kids do the cleanup.

I shut down centers left messy. [Feb 18 2017, 2:46 PM] TimBogatzAOE: All of her resources can be found in the after pass.

[Feb 18 2017, 2:50 PM] artlifewithfarr: wow great ideas [Feb 18 2017, 2:50 PM] artlifewithfarr: connecting to history---maloica [Feb 18 2017, 2:51 PM] artlifewithfarr: maolica [Feb 18 2017, 2:51 PM] Cristi Miller: I'm a kilnless art teacher, so.... :-( [Feb 18 2017, 2:51 PM] TimBogatzAOE: John has a really cool website with a lot of great clay ideas: http://www.johnpost.us/ [Feb 18 2017, 2:51 PM] bellafiore3: Made my own glazes in grad school and loved experimenting with materials and results [Feb 18 2017, 2:51 PM] Deborah Eittreim: elizabeth, my schedule is MS, HS,HS, Strategic Reading, prep, lunch HS, ES, HS Graphic Arts [Feb 18 2017, 2:52 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @artlifewithfarr John has a lot more info in his handout about majolica: https://www.theartofed.com/content/ uploads/2017/01/John-Post-Glaze.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 2:52 PM] Kayt Merckx: Is anyone else having problems with the TAB PDF Links not working???? [Feb 18 2017, 2:52 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Cristi, Me too. I use air dry clay.

[Feb 18 2017, 2:54 PM] KimExpressed: What is IB [Feb 18 2017, 2:54 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: I am a little lost me and numbers not friends [Feb 18 2017, 2:54 PM] Kayt Merckx: Is anyone else having problems with the TAB PDF Links not working????

[Feb 18 2017, 2:54 PM] bellafiore3: Love that he's explaining math measuring! [Feb 18 2017, 2:55 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @Kayt not sure why they aren't working . . . [Feb 18 2017, 2:55 PM] Guest554: where do you even buy dry ingredients to mix your own? [Feb 18 2017, 2:55 PM] Missy Roth Perna: nasco [Feb 18 2017, 2:55 PM] Cathy Kerch : Is there a supplier list? It's hard to get supplies in Hawaii not too many Ceramic suppliers here. [Feb 18 2017, 2:55 PM] Missy Hansen: I wish I had a kiln [Feb 18 2017, 2:56 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @Guest554 John has a link to his favorite place(s) to purchase supplies in his handout: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/John-Post-Glaze.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 2:56 PM] rleirmo: Studio setup is awesome [Feb 18 2017, 2:56 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: what a great studio set up! [Feb 18 2017, 2:56 PM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: trying to sign up for summer...discount is not working. Will it work after this conference? [Feb 18 2017, 2:57 PM] theartofed: It should be working @janis - lots of have already signed up - contact [email protected] if you're having repeated issues. [Feb 18 2017, 2:57 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: The apply discount button does not appear until the end [Feb 18 2017, 2:57 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: there is a discount code they emailed. the button to add it is at the bottom of the check out page took me a few trys to find it. [Feb 18 2017, 2:58 PM] Audrey Cisneros: Lol Math IB=international baccalaureate [Feb 18 2017, 2:58 PM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: I found the place it just keeps saying null [Feb 18 2017, 2:59 PM] Anita Bhatty: Hello from sunny Panama. I teach Pr-K-4. [Feb 18 2017, 2:59 PM] Glenwood_Art: Ha thats the same way I do it [Feb 18 2017, 2:59 PM] Tessa Hitz: OH MY that's brillaint to melt your wax and dip that way [Feb 18 2017, 2:59 PM] TimBogatzAOE: This glazing process is genius. [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Why have I never thought about the wax technique? [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] KimExpressed: Bet that is a lot less expensive than wax resist and definitely faster [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] Melanie Martinez: Loving this process [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] Missy Roth Perna: John is a genius!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] Lacy Leach: he's making me miss teaching high school! [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] Melissa Ann: So. can I have kids color the bottom of their project with a white crayon if I don't want to dip the wax? [Feb 18 2017, 3:00 PM] Kelly Phillips: John Post is my guru :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] rleirmo: Janis, Check your email to see if your order went through. My order was processing for a long time. you will get a receipt. [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Missy Roth Perna: he teaches elementary [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Elizabeth Harper: Maybe I missed it, but would you still use a stilt under each piece in the kiln? [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: @Melissa - Yes... I have done that in a pinch [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Melissa Ann: Thanks sarah [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] KimExpressed: Great idea to extend the commercial glaze. I might have to do this [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Anastasia Volk Maroney: no stilt [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thanks John! [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Lacy Leach: wow he really is amazing! [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: @Melissa --- any color works, really [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] MTauber: Classroom management coming up...can't wait [Feb 18 2017, 3:01 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @Elizabeth that process eliminates the need for stilts [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Deborah Eittreim: what a wonderful Idea with the sample on the top of the container! I'm still living with the various glazes left from the previous teacher. And I love the paraffin idea [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Elizabeth Harper: thanks Tim [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] MTauber: My middle school kids are out of control this year [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Kelsey Pralle: Does the wax burn off in the kiln? [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Michael Linsin! Here's his website: www.smartclassroommanagement.com [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] KathrynPetri: Great tips for glazing John! Wish I knew some of these things when I taught high school ceramics. But great for making glaze go further in the elementary classroom too! [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Out of control middle schoolers..isn't that a given. lol [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Sarah Winther Shumaker: @kelsey - Yes :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @kelsey Yes, it burns off [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] KimExpressed: I live by his books!!! Love "Dream class" [Feb 18 2017, 3:02 PM] Kelsey Pralle: That is awesome!!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Sarah King Hartzler: great way to save on the budget for glaze:) Thanks! [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Emily Long: i've tried sooooo many different things to make cleanup run smoother. [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Emily Miller: @emily, do share please! [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Marie Micchelli: jobs! jobs, have saved me during clean up and set up! [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Camille Katherine: All awesome books! [Feb 18 2017, 3:03 PM] Michelle Sauer: 10 minutes to clean up and then they complain class is too short. [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] BVSDVisualArts: "Dream Class" is a great book! [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I have read the classroom management secret. [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Tamara Hallock: Students are taught about exactly how the room should look at the end of the period. My one class has lunch after my class, so, unless the room is cleaned up, they go to lunch late. Perfect for those 7th graders. [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Emily Miller: Jobs worked for elem, more trouble with HS. Ideas anyone? [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Janine Campbell: I usually leave 5 min for clean up. [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Kattie Leonffu: It's funny, but my K students clean-up time is better than my 7th graders! [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Lacy Leach: I have his book on specials teachers right next to me! [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Michelle Sauer: Yes, younger kids are better at cleaning up than older! [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] KimExpressed: Mine is one the floor next to me too, Lacy Leach [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Linda Krecker Brett: younger kids care more [Feb 18 2017, 3:04 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Me too [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Guest3574: Youngerstudents are excited to be helpers! [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Lian Brehm: I number tables, and have small whiteboards to show what each table needs to do. Works great! [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Martha Butcher: I have a lot of playing and being uncooperative with cleanup helpers. It gets annoying! [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Janine Campbell: I do clay on the first day with my students. It sets up nicely for the rest of the term. [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Katherine Svoboda: i use the no yell bell...i wish i had it years ago [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Deborah Eittreim: some of the elem sped student who are constantly up, bothering other kids and their work, singing, yelling, [Feb 18 2017, 3:05 PM] Linda Krecker Brett: Katherine, just added one ot my desk. [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] KimExpressed: When they are out of control. I stop take a deep breath and start to talk quietly to only the students who are listening. It works sometimes, the others think they are missing something. [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Lacy Leach: He's explaining my life now! lol [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: My middle school seems more difficult than my elementary kids at clean up. [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] bellafiore3: It's 62 degrees outside and bright sun right now here in WI...in February!!! I'm going to head out on a walk/run. Thanks for a great conference. I will watch the rest later. It's been awesome as always. Really appreciate it. Look forward to seeing everyone in NYC in 2 weeks. [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Kelly Phillips: @KatherineSvoboda I loved your idea that TAB makes you think about your own art! It's so true and I'm writing an article about it next month! [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I've always believed this, but I work in a district that loves to yell! UGH! I hate that, I'm not a yeller. [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Linda, they don't last..i had to get a new one after a few years [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] Patty89: what is the no yell bell? [Feb 18 2017, 3:06 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Thanks, Jeanne! I would love to catch up with you in NYC! [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Katherine Svoboda: electronic bell with different sounds. I use two: one for clean up , one if I have something to say [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: yes!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Kelly Phillips: OOOO come visit me at the AOE booth in NYC! [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] bellafiore3: TimBogatzAOE definitely! Come to my session on Friday at 9:00 a.m. on Cyanotypes and alternative photography [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Deborah Eittreim: I have a no yell, pay attention immediately bell. Then I have kids who completely ignore bell, keep talking [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Michelle Bianco Ekross: Awesome, See you in NYC! [Feb 18 2017, 3:07 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: what do you do with students who just don't care? [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] Emily Miller: I set alarms on my phone with different sounds - a tick tock, for instance, when it's time to start clean up, and happy sounds when class is to start, sad sounds when classtime is over. : ) [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] Cathy Kerch : what do you do with 5 little 5th graders who are terrors on wheels [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] KimExpressed: I use the clean up song from "songs in the Key of Art" on my iPad [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] Kelly Phillips: Some students don't care but it's good to praise the ones who do. Have you ever done secret supply? [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] Patty89: I have students who don't care too. [Feb 18 2017, 3:08 PM] Cathy Kerch : Kimexpressed is there a link to those songs [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] theartofed: AOE Visual Journals are rolling in! https://twitter.com/hashtag/aoejournal?f=tweets&vertical=default&src=hash [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] Katherine Svoboda: my kids are pretty good. they new my rules and they know me... [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] Kelly Phillips: Also, if you have no shame, I sometimes sing the names of students who won't clean up with a little song ...... works most of the time [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] LeslieQ: What is secret supply! :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] Anita Bhatty: songs in the Key of Art by Greg Percy just never worked for my students,,,,,they have a good laugh at his songs [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] Emily Miller: When I taught 5th grade, I had a carpet I'd ask those too frisky to work to sit on until they decided to come back and work well. usually worked very well. Speak softly one-on-one, let them know THEY decided to be on the rug. [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] KimExpressed: In my building, you don't get too close to the behavior students. They will accuse you of physical contact or saying something to them. Teachers have been suspended. I was at risk in the fall. [Feb 18 2017, 3:09 PM] Cathy Kerch : this is the first time i've had only 5 kids for 5th grade art and they are out of control. seriously i can't tell you how many teachers and students have also comment how bad these 5 kids are in other classes too [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Kelly Phillips: Choose one thing and it's a secret so no one can ask what it is....whoever i see put it away gets to line up first and gets the glory of secret supply finder.....or a prize of some kind. [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Deborah Eittreim: sometimes classes are too small [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: oh kim that's horrible. My kids engulf me in hugs so much so I get knocked off balance. [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Cathy Kerch : our students choose which electives to be in and most of the 5th grade chose other electives to avoid these 5 [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Emily Miller: @cathy, can you conference with the "nicest" kid, telling him/her that he's the leader,? [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Janine Campbell: This is such a good reminder. Kindness gets more kindness... I needed this. [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] KimExpressed: I call the secret supply a mystery item and my Neat Freak job finds it. I give them a crayon I have made for a reward. [Feb 18 2017, 3:10 PM] Deborah Eittreim: I have to clear out tables to be able to have a place for a rug. [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] TimBogatzAOE: All of Michael's ideas from this presentation are put together in his handout here: https:// www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/02/How-To-Gain-Control-Of-Any- Classroom.pdf [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] Janine Campbell: Anyone else trained in Capturing kids hearts? [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I think kindness is important. I have a Keurig and I treat my students to hot chocolate on occasion. They know that I may offer one to them some day. [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: Our school promotes kindness but I just don't see the teachers giving back the kindness that we want them to give to each other. [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] KimExpressed: Melanie - younger kids are huggers but you still are careful. We have a not touch policy. I hug only with one arm because I personally can not reject those wonderful hugs [Feb 18 2017, 3:11 PM] Cathy Kerch : @Emily, honestly there isn't one. sadly this is my worse class. i had a sub tell the principal she would never sub for my 5th grade art class ever again [Feb 18 2017, 3:12 PM] Patty89: I have been trained in Capturing Kids Hearts and Restorative Justice [Feb 18 2017, 3:12 PM] Kelly Phillips: @kimexpressed to answer your earlier question I use gardening gloves and strict routines but have used hot glue with first graders! [Feb 18 2017, 3:12 PM] KimExpressed: Kelly - gardening gloves - good idea [Feb 18 2017, 3:12 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Cathy, I am sorry you are feeling so frustrated with the 5. I have found if you find out what they are interested in it can help [Feb 18 2017, 3:13 PM] Gayle Kraus: GREAT in theory but doesn't always work. Middle school wannabe tough kids...I've tried all these and what admin suggested...nothing... [Feb 18 2017, 3:13 PM] Cathy Kerch : I have a chill out space and all 5 went in there during 1 class period. It was crazy. [Feb 18 2017, 3:13 PM] KimExpressed: Cathy, we had an entire class of 5th graders like that last year. You just did your best and were thankful when they graduated. [Feb 18 2017, 3:13 PM] Audrey Cisneros: I teach high school and my students all still love stickers as rewards. Thankfully I haven't had classroom management issues since my first year lol. I even have volunteers who come after school to help me deep clean and organize. [Feb 18 2017, 3:13 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: Are any of these books available on Audible? [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] Cathy Kerch : @KimExpressed I've been counting down to Spring Break. LOL Isn't that sad. [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] McCormick_Wanto: I have a count down for summer [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] Cristi Miller: I had a pre-k student who amused himself last week by carrying a sheet of heart stickers as he walked down the hall and stickered every staff/faculty he came across! :-D [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] KimExpressed: Cathy, I felt the same way last year. They are still having trouble in MS [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] Cathy Kerch : In my 20 years of teaching this is my first year of feeling this way. :-( [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] Emily Miller: @Cathy, I'm so sorry. Hugs to you, my friend. Okay, here's a trick that worked in a sped class I had - a huge tub of smallish rocks!! Believe it or not, the kids were so captivated by the rocks they couldn't take time to be bad. Before they came in I told students that I had something special for them. Their parents/guardians were so overwhelmed by trying to control the kids that they never let the kids play with dirt or rocks, etc. My Big Bucket-o-Rocks was a huge success! All they had to do was pul [Feb 18 2017, 3:14 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Cathy, would any of those students be good helpers for a younger grade level? I know it is hard to think of inviting them into your classroom for more time but sometimes it helps to build a relationship outside their classroom time. [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Emily Miller: oops *pull out one rock at a time and build! [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: I guess I should be grateful I work in a small district where we do hug with both arms, even the 5th graders. We tell them we love them. It could be the only time they hear it. Thankfully it's a blessing not something made to be horrible. [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Cathy Kerch : @Emily, oh that [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Tamara Hallock: Great strategies, but have you ever noticed if that ONE student is absent, the class runs SO smoothly. [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Cathy Kerch : @Emily oh, that's a great idea. thank you [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] KimExpressed: Tamara - YES [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Michelle Sauer: Same with me Melanie [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] rleirmo: try ClassDojo [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Kelly Phillips: @SaraZaller Craftsmanship is a stable of TAB but not before play. I teach my kiddos that play comes first and then refining ideas makes them ready for display. Craftsmanship is HUGE in TAB but not before process. [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] KathrynPetri: Excellent classroom management strategies from Michael, now to implement them :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:15 PM] Deborah Eittreim: That's my 2-3 class. There are those who totally ignore any information and scream and yell when they are redirected. They are jealous of any color crayon the kids across the room has and runs across the room to grab it, despite having the same color in front of them. Ditto all other supplies. And stopping work? Oh no, some kids are screaming they are not done, get away from them, etc [Feb 18 2017, 3:16 PM] Lian Brehm: Practice this in front of a mirror! Works wonders! [Feb 18 2017, 3:16 PM] Audrey Cisneros: The middle school classes also located in my building have a lot of behavior issues. I often have to intervene. I love the kindness idea this is so true. I great every student at the door everyday and this makes a huge differnence. [Feb 18 2017, 3:16 PM] Cristi Miller: Cathy, I had a group like that last year-- all kinds of behavior issues related to psych stuff (emotionally disturbed, opposition- defiant disorder, etc.) We just did the best we could and involved their parents and spec.ed. staff as needed. :-/ [Feb 18 2017, 3:16 PM] KimExpressed: I think I got this from Michael's books - it's not personal. I used to think the kids were naughty because they didn't like me. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] TimBogatzAOE: If you want to read some more ideas about classroom management, I did an awesome interview with Michael Linsin for this article, called “Why You Shouldn’t Care if Your Students Misbehave” https://www.theartofed.com/2017/01/26/shouldnt-care-students-misbehave- interview-michael-linsin/ [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Deborah, That is exactly what I am experiencing in several of my classes. I have 8 a day. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] Gayle Kraus: I do weekly affirmations. These work well with all 6, 7 ,and 8th graders. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] TimBogatzAOE: And for a throwback, here’s a REALLY old guest article from Michael Linsin. It was published when AOE was JUST getting started! https://www.theartofed.com/2012/01/24/a-classroom-management- strategy-elementary-art-teachers-cant-live-without/ [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] BritLuksicMCPSMD: There are more than primary teachers here. Would love to see that video. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] Kelly Phillips: Also, @sarazaller I use my walls as 3D lesson plans so when students naturally start to use the E and P I can point to it and introduce them to the idea. It's more authentic I think. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] Audrey Cisneros: Love affirmations. I do highlighters high fives and shout outs [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] Tamara Hallock: I still like to use adult talk to the little ones. They get it, too. [Feb 18 2017, 3:17 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Great tips from Michael! He has a lot more out there to read and learn from! [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Polly Blair: Be bold! [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Cathy Kerch : I know the kids like me. One of the 5th grade teachers came up to me and said do you know why you only have these 5? I said no. She said because they went around telling the other students not to take art because they weren't allow in their club [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Emily Miller: Yay Cathy!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: truly, no matter who the student is. If you talk to them like you care about them they will respond. They just want someone to listen to them [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Cathy Kerch : I was floored and upset but Admin said they couldn't do anything about it since the class was set and the other kids had chosen other electives [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: These tips are important to think and do as teachers because we need to see ourselves the way students see us. Self improvement. [Feb 18 2017, 3:18 PM] JillannB: If I have a student that is not following directions I pull them from the project and they loose their privilege. I move them to a table by themselves until they are ready to join the class. This works really well for me. The kids don't want to miss out on creating art! [Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] Cathy Kerch : It [Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] Tamara Hallock: JillannB- I do that, too. [Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] Cathy Kerch : It's been a crazy year.

[Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] Deborah Eittreim: I have kids of all ages that totally can't do anything by themselves. I hear my name hundreds of times of times - Mrs E, I need help! Even after I help them, they want more. and more, and more. They basically want me to do their work for them so they don't have to. And they admit it [Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] LeslieQ: That was great! [Feb 18 2017, 3:19 PM] KimExpressed: I do warnings and move the seat. I also keep a behavior log for me so that I can track repetitious behaviors to give me more insight. If nothing is working, definitely involve the family [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Cathy Kerch : I'm going to try some of Michael's tips but with these 5 I'm not sure. [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Lisa Pavlak: Try the CLASS DOJO app - it is awesome! [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Gayle Kraus: My students get 10 mins to do a reflective draw and or write. I am shocked and humbled how a majority of the students do. [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I have used Class Dojo as well and the kids love it. [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Cristi Miller: I've also found that the kids will be more cooperative if you level with them. For example, if I'm sick, I'll just say, "You know what, cherubs? I'm feeling pretty yucky today so I'm in a pretty grumpy mood. Do you think we can all be on our best behavior so we can all have a good day today?" [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Kelly Phillips: @CesArt I'm excited for you to open your sculpture center btw!!!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Cathy Kerch : I love Class Dojo great app. I let the kids click on their alien on the smartboard [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Tamara Hallock: Gelli printing is Addicting. My students and I could do it all day. [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Janine Campbell: I love Gelli Arts! I use them in my class all of the time. [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I haven't used it as much this year because I am finding I am really busy because of Choice and TAB stuff [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] Cristi Miller: I need to try the gelli plates! [Feb 18 2017, 3:20 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Gelli printing is life changing! [Feb 18 2017, 3:21 PM] Martha Butcher: need to try gelli printing! [Feb 18 2017, 3:21 PM] Janine Campbell: I just posted a piece on my class blog that I finished with a gelli plate background: http:// bcwmsart.weebly.com/artventuring-in-middleschool/week-four7488404 [Feb 18 2017, 3:21 PM] Carly Stockley: love my gelli plate [Feb 18 2017, 3:21 PM] Kelly Phillips: Abby S. just wrote about using it with clay!

[Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Polly Blair: Whoa! [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Cristi Miller: Darci, it is a challenge just due to the nature of what we teach! [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Cristi Miller: :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Audrey Cisneros: I love Gelli everything [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Anyone excited for the TWO iPad minis to be given away? [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] KimExpressed: Gellis with clay? [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Melanie Martinez: Thank you so much Swag Suppliers!!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:22 PM] Heather May Schwartz: We apologized.

[Feb 18 2017, 3:23 PM] Matt Young: Students work well with choice and consistency. What I mean by that is the more they have personal connections to their work and the classroom the more they take ownership. Also, Craig and I have very similar processes in ALL of our classes. Students know the routine and what to expect. [Feb 18 2017, 3:23 PM] Heather May Schwartz: I agree! [Feb 18 2017, 3:23 PM] Tracey Taylor: I think we all want those water brushes!!!!! Let's call Kuritake or Niji!!!!

Waterbrushes, please and thank you! :-D [Feb 18 2017, 3:24 PM] Katherine Svoboda: That explains a lot! If I don't see it, it doesn't exist. lol [Feb 18 2017, 3:24 PM] Kelly Phillips: Thanks for tuning in for my first ArtEd Now presentation. I loved going back and reading all the comments. Connect with me on twitter, instagram, fb or the art of ed if you're interested in TAB!

[Feb 18 2017, 3:26 PM] Cristi Miller: My daily plans section of my lesson planner is done with sticky notes! Each grade has its own color and it makes it easy to move them on to the next week if we have an assembly or early release due to snow, etc. [Feb 18 2017, 3:26 PM] Matt Young: https://www.jetpens.com/blog/guide-to- water-brushes/pt/792 [Feb 18 2017, 3:26 PM] Martha Butcher: We recently have become required to do an online plan book.

Visual notes does work better for me, too! [Feb 18 2017, 3:26 PM] Lisa Pavlak: Great job Kelly!

[Feb 18 2017, 3:27 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: Is there a copy of that year long organizer? [Feb 18 2017, 3:27 PM] Audrey Cisneros: Lol I love planners but I am a stationery hoarder so I do everything online now � [Feb 18 2017, 3:27 PM] Guest2769: That is so me--if I don't see it, it doesn't exist! [Feb 18 2017, 3:27 PM] TimBogatzAOE: @Lacy We've never done it before--I will check into it and see if it's possible! [Feb 18 2017, 3:27 PM] Tamara Hallock: are there great printables for organizing?

One tab is my yearlong scope and sequnce and 1 tab is the week at a glance. [Feb 18 2017, 3:28 PM] Matt Young: GOOGLE keep? [Feb 18 2017, 3:28 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: no sound [Feb 18 2017, 3:28 PM] Polly Blair: @Kelly--hope it's okay I sent you a "follow" request on Insta.

[Feb 18 2017, 3:33 PM] Deborah Eittreim: I use the visual calendar for the entire class, but stickies and what goes into the planner only to identify the major projects I am working for. The little details are in my head- I work ahead for all the classes a month or two and start organizing materials, samples, cross curricular connections, teaming with other teachers on projects..... The trick is to find space to put project information, materials, and samples until the time comes [Feb 18 2017, 3:33 PM] Kattie Leonffu: Loved the mind maps! Have to this with my students.

I update mine frequently but others do not. So sad. [Feb 18 2017, 3:35 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Here we go! Can't wait to hear some feedback about how professional learning works for all of you. [Feb 18 2017, 3:36 PM] Mary Joan Dickrell-Starnitcky: I do the same thing with two binders at each school. I also have a back up plan project that the kids have in their folders in case I have a sub!

[Feb 18 2017, 3:39 PM] Tracey Taylor: Our school has been studying Stephen Covey's books....We have many teachers opting out do to religious exemption due to the background and the foundational covey work that these books come from. [Feb 18 2017, 3:39 PM] Deborah Eittreim: I'm a secondary teacher, but I go to most of the elem and MS grade level meetings too so I know what is going on in their world so I, as an art teacher, can support their goals. [Feb 18 2017, 3:40 PM] Matt Young: Great insight @Kathleen. Started a PD revolution in my district as well. So far it is 50/50 with relevancy and the jumping through hoops of the district. [Feb 18 2017, 3:40 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Tracey...there is a religious component that pops up once in awhile in the student book. I have a sixth grade book I have to teach and we came across a little issue but I don't focus on that [Feb 18 2017, 3:41 PM] KimExpressed: Last Spring I ask the assist sup to allow another art teacher and myself to run PD for our group this year. He must have thought it was a great idea. He appointed her in charge...I still feel the sting but on the upside, our Pd is really relavant and she is doing a terrific job. [Feb 18 2017, 3:41 PM] Cathy Kerch : Our PD needs a shake up. Just went to one last month for ACCE and the selection was nothing that I could relate to. [Feb 18 2017, 3:41 PM] BVSDVisualArts: @kimExpressed: Wonderful! Good for you! [Feb 18 2017, 3:41 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: @Deborah, I do the same, and my teachers are courteous enough to give me a heads up when meetings are going to be strictly data discussion or a grading policy that will not affect me. [Feb 18 2017, 3:42 PM] Lacy Leach: My principal is amazing and lets us do what we need to work on and I come here for art PD : ) [Feb 18 2017, 3:42 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Those are all good books and I love them [Feb 18 2017, 3:42 PM] Matt Young: LOVE that statement. Don't assume that PD is out of our control. Just ask! Once I offered that I would set up art PD our district was more than happy to give up some time for us to meet. Since then I have spoke all around the state to other art teachers looking for PD as well. JUST ASK:) [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] BVSDVisualArts: I love hearing all these great professional learning ideas coming from you! [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] Tara Barnes: Kathleen you make me want to head to Barnes and Noble after this conference! [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] Polly Blair: Amazingly grateful for Kathleen. As a student teacher last year, I was so excited to sit in on some of her awesome PD. [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] Cathy Kerch : I love the Art of Education Conferences. these are the best PDs that I've attended from my couch. <3 If it was here on the island I would physically attend. So worth it. [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] BVSDVisualArts: @pollyblair: I am grateful for you as well! You rock! I learn from the best, just like you! [Feb 18 2017, 3:43 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: In the next conference I would love to see a presentation about curriculum planning ( elementary) [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] KimExpressed: AOE has definitely been responsible for me feeling up to date and connected to relevant changes in the art world. [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Olivia: Our admin have started to differentiate for elective teachers after we mentioned that we want to learn but it is very difficult and frustrating if we have to spend half of the pd trying to figure out how the pd relates to us. It is really great [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] JillannB: what was the facebook group? [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Olivia: art teachers [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Matt Young: Art Teachers [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Matt Young: Literally, just art teachers is the name :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Jlwilliams78Jw: There is a elementary art teachers group too [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] Katherine Svoboda: My only problem with the Leader in Me stuff is that we bought all of this stuff and then they cut all of our classroom budgets. [Feb 18 2017, 3:44 PM] JillannB: Thanks! Is anyone a member? [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Lian Brehm: I keep wanting the Art Teachers FB page should be divided into lower elementary, middle elementary, upper, middle school, HS groups. [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Katherine Svoboda: Kathleen, I really enjoyed your talk. [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Cathy Kerch : @KimExpressed I feel that same way. The summer conference was my first and I love it. It Energized me and got my Brain Resynced to begin the new school year. [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Matt Young: Yes, like she says half is good stuff. Half is so, so. [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Melissa Ann: It is an expensive program (LIM) Katherine. We got grants for some of the materials [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Emily Miller: Great job, thank you! [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] JillannB: Thanks, Matt. [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: I just finished a whole year of PD that I had to take. I wish it had been more geared to just art teachers but I did get some things out of it. Will look up some of these links. Thanks Kathleen [Feb 18 2017, 3:45 PM] KimExpressed: Take classes, too Cathy Kerch. Our state has begun to accept graduate level courses toward master's certification. [Feb 18 2017, 3:46 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I have joined different Choice groups on fb [Feb 18 2017, 3:46 PM] theartofed: Scroll to the bottom of the After Pass for a bunch of great bonus presentations that we couldn't fit into the main event!! Seriously great stuff. [Feb 18 2017, 3:46 PM] Cathy Kerch : @KimExpressed I should look into that. Thank you for the suggestion. [Feb 18 2017, 3:46 PM] Matt Young: Whoot we are a bonus :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] JillannB: Love Artsonia! [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Lynette Marie: I love Artsonia! My students are so proud of all the artwork that we have online! [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: I love my art county PLC meetings. It's my building PLC and PD meeting that mostly don't apply to me. [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Christy Berry: I love Artsonia! [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] artlifewithfarr: I have years of stuff on Artsonia. Maybe I should use it again. Hmmm. [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Gerrie Gilchrist: love Artsonia [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Melissa Ann: frozen [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Melissa Ann: let me know if I win! [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Maureen Doerle Finnegan: oh no frozen [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Deborah Eittreim: My school only has 13 teachers ( 3 are part time) K-12 and the principal and the superintendent also teach a class, so we have amazing coordination [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] DeniseCharlie Spacek: me too [Feb 18 2017, 3:47 PM] Emily Miller: frozen!

[Feb 18 2017, 3:49 PM] Matt Young: Saw Matt(great name) at NAEA and his presentation was great. We modeled 2 projects after his. [Feb 18 2017, 3:49 PM] Diana Fisher: Congratulations!! [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] KimExpressed: Up for this...my kids so want to do Graffitti [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] Yvonne Yowman-Hall: Just completed a graffiti project with my 6th graders. Some were pretty awesome. Very proud of them [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] LeslieQ: Kids love graffiti! [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] Lian Brehm: I did a typography unit with my Grade 6 MS students- design font design, and many students chose to do grafitti like tags for their name. [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] TimBogatzAOE: Matt is full of amazing ideas. All of Matt’s articles are here: https://www.theartofed.com/author/mattchristenson/ [Feb 18 2017, 3:50 PM] KimExpressed: Connect to Keith Haring to qualify, right? [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] EShields: I did graffiti with my 8th graders, the link is here: http://www.artsonia.com/museum/gallery.asp?project=1189637 [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: We did graffiti names with 6-8th grades at the beginning of the year and then hung them all over the school like tags. [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] Kathryn Davis Johnson: One of the best discussions I had with my 6th grade students- "Is Graffiti Art?" [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] TimBogatzAOE: And here is his full presentation: https://www.theartofed.com/content/uploads/2017/01/ DevelopingIdentityGraffiti.pptx [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] Laura Ruth Carey: Just finishing Garffiti names with 8th grade! [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] Tessa Hitz: @Holly - that's cool! Did you cut them out so the edges of the their names were the overall shape? [Feb 18 2017, 3:51 PM] Cathy Kerch : I have one wall in my classroom painted with Black Chalk Paint. I gave my students colored chalk at the beginning and had them Graffiti it. The focus was draw your self portrait emoji. If they didn't want to do selfie then their best art. [Feb 18 2017, 3:52 PM] Kattie Leonffu: Doing graffiti with 6th & 7th graders now. [Feb 18 2017, 3:52 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Tessa: Yes. They had some splatter watercolor in the background. [Feb 18 2017, 3:52 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Yes we cut them up too. [Feb 18 2017, 3:52 PM] Cathy Kerch : Every year I wash it down and start over. it's a fun ice breaker [Feb 18 2017, 3:53 PM] Anita Bhatty: Graffiti.... fabulous! I chose graffiti as the topic for my Masters Research project while taking classes at BU online. The topic was Community Artists. I invited a local graffiti artist to work with 4th graders, he had them create a mural and the students loved it.... they feel so confident that now want to teach younger students. [Feb 18 2017, 3:53 PM] Cristi Miller: How cool, Anita! [Feb 18 2017, 3:54 PM] KimExpressed: Will plan a unit on this for end of year.....excitement [Feb 18 2017, 3:54 PM] artlifewithfarr: This is cool, I found this how-to on graffiti the other day: http://newstylishgraffiti.blogspot.com/2014/03/ wildstyle-graffiti-letters.html [Feb 18 2017, 3:55 PM] artlifewithfarr: irony, metaphor, symbolism love it [Feb 18 2017, 3:55 PM] Melanie LeBrecht Wesa: kids love this! I like how he presents it, much better than what I did! [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Tessa Hitz: Love this! [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Sara Zallar: Love how you break down identity beyond gender and race! [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Katherine Svoboda: This guy is very cool! I like what he is saying [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] KimExpressed: A Mural!!! Love that idea [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Lian Brehm: Presenters - PLEASE leave the visuals up for LONGER, while you are speaking. [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Cathy Kerch : I love this! I think I'll switch up my graffiti lesson with these awesome ideas. [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Emily Long: this is amazing@! [Feb 18 2017, 3:56 PM] Cristi Miller: Fantastic presentation, and I can definitely tell just from his accent and clothing style he's definitely from CA. :) [Feb 18 2017, 3:57 PM] Deborah Eittreim: Love this guy! So organized and has visuals to reinforce the ideas [Feb 18 2017, 3:57 PM] Matt Young: We do a 3D lesson on graffiti based on his talk. HS students love it. Really drives home personal choice, vision, along with clay and painting techniques. [Feb 18 2017, 3:57 PM] Kattie Leonffu: My students (especially the ones who are scared to draw) are loving GraffitiCreator.net. They offer quite a few styles/fonts that students can use to create their names or tags in graffiti styles. [Feb 18 2017, 3:57 PM] Kattie Leonffu: http://www.graffiticreator.net [Feb 18 2017, 3:58 PM] KimExpressed: Does it cost anything Kattie? [Feb 18 2017, 3:58 PM] Kattie Leonffu: I have also asked a local street artist to come in and talk to the students about his experience with graffiti. He should be visiting soon. I can't wait. [Feb 18 2017, 3:58 PM] KimExpressed: I like the quilt...reminds me of Britto [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] Jeff Allen: Isn't graffiti vandalism? And isn't it tied to gang identity? I have a problem teaching this. [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] Melissa Ann: he explained it - permission and property [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] artlifewithfarr: only a fraction of graffiti is related to gangs..it s [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] KimExpressed: Keith Haring started out as a Graffiti artist, Jeff Allen [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] Cristi Miller: Jeff, he spoke about permission and property. If you have permission and it's your property, you're good to go. [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] Kattie Leonffu: Not if it's done on your own property or on property in which you have been granted permission to create your graffiti on. [Feb 18 2017, 3:59 PM] LeslieQ: I like the quilt, too! Can also create a class quilt joining all pieces! [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Katherine Svoboda: I love his take on the reflection piece at the end. [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Kattie Leonffu: I also do a lesson that asks students to research graffiti and then decide whether graffiti is an art or vandalism. [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Nikki: If the word Graffiti worries you then view it through the lens of the Street Art. [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Martha Butcher: I've dabbled with graffiti in elementary school some. I'd need more thought to make it meaningful to them. Matt is a great presenter! High School content is so much more able to bring these concepts together with kids. Also, there is a huge difference from California to NC! We love Shepard Fairy on the east coast! He's from Charleston! [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] KimExpressed: Can't wait for the handouts on this and the google slide show [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] LeslieQ: This is great... I love the steps and process! Yes I will love the slide show! :) [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Anastasia Volk Maroney: Thanks Matt! [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Anita Bhatty: No graffiti si not vandalism anymore [Feb 18 2017, 4:00 PM] Lisa Pavlak: Banksy and Basquiat are awesome tie-ins! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] McCormick_Wanto: yes! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Robin Hudak Stauffer: Ohhh Google slides [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Katherine Svoboda: That was awesome and a great way to end the day! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] artlifewithfarr: the kids like doing the letters, even if they are "blond affluent girls"...seriously...pretty fun...it is part of our culture that is many decades long...it excites a lot of the students that don't like school, and helps you speak to them directly...great ideas on design and metaphor [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] rleirmo: Thank you for the slide show! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Anita Bhatty: it is art and ways to express views of the artist [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Janis Stivers Nunnally: Good day! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Deborah Eittreim: Every project in my classroom has an artist statement and reflection [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Matt Young: Shepard Fairy [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] theartofed: Stay tuned for a fun cameo appearance. [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Cristi Miller: Anita, it is if you don't have permission or it isn't your property, but quite a bit of it is okayed by the building owner. [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: This has been the best conference!! I feel very rewarded with knowledge to use in my classroom. [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Emily Miller: Awesome conference! So glad I came! [Feb 18 2017, 4:01 PM] Cathy Kerch : Graffiti is art , Tagging is vandalism if that helps to distinguish the difference. Tagging is just leaving your name with no artistic thought and purpose. [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Jenny Wright Jackson: This has been so helpful and rewarding!! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] KimExpressed: Now I have to wait for August! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Art Rume: How do we access the google slideshow of Matt's presentation? [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Matt Young: Been a great experience! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Mary Joan Dickrell-Starnitcky: Great day once again!! Thank you Jessica and team!! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Ruth Post: Thanks AOE and fellow artist / art teachers! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Cathy Kerch : Awesome presentations!!! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] BVSDVisualArts: Yippie for Tim! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Cathy Kerch : Thanks Tim [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Holly Fritts-Benjamin: Thank you Tim! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Tessa Hitz: Great job Tim! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Polly Blair: LOVE Art Ed Radio! I tune in every Tuesday! [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Matt Young: Tim (thumbs up) [Feb 18 2017, 4:02 PM] Robyn Rubenstein Shear: YAY TIM!
