First Day of School in the Art Room


Setting Expectations


The Owls and Geckos discussed the art classroom expectations. After the discussion, each student typed in a classroom expectation in their own words at the smart board. The text was typed into an ImageChef word cloud app. The students the voted on the color and design scheme. The expectation word clouds now hang in the classroom as reminders for everyone throughout the year. Their enthusiasm was amazing while working on this group reflection!
