Week 7 – Welcome to our new Student Teacher Ms. Sandersen!

HELLO! WELCOME to ArtWithKorb.com. If you want to ALWAYS SEE what is happening the SUNDAY before it happens – SUBSCRIBE.

Welcome to Ms. Ava Sandersen from UW-Milwaukee. She will be joining us as our student teacher at Forest Park Middle School for some time now. WELCOME! It is going to be GREAT to have you here.

One more week! Before I begin… HERE is a link to the new STANDARDS BASED RUBRICS that the 7th graders REBUILT. The original was fine and written lovely for a teacher – NOW the kids had a hand in it and the standards are things they can check off and see that they have met the baseline for the standards. I would LOVE to hear your feedback! I am SO PROUD of the kids. The 8th graders did the same for their rubrics… this is just one of the examples.

EXPECTATIONS in the studio… Here are ours.

      One of the BIGGEST CHALLENGES I see with 8th graders and your understanding of what art is and what it can be is that you don not have a wide view of the world of the arts. The IMAGE, the PICTURE has to be something and it has to be correct (in many of the 8th graders eyes) and sometimes it can be and should be about the mark making… the act of making art. Sol Le Witt nailed this!
