8th Grade Art: Paperless/Semi-flipped Classroom- Handout, Project Resources

For each art project, Haiku is used to create a project page contains videos, links, handouts, artist ex., etc. Student and parents can access this page at anytime. This a great resource that can allow students to preview, review, or move ahead (allowing for individual pacing).

For the Monument project, students will be having a back channel discussion using Padlet.com while watching a documentary about the Vietnam Memorial designer/artist, Maya Lin. See the trailer below.

6th Grade Paper Brain Models

As my school joins the maker and stem movement, more and more of collegial conversations focus on student projects as problem solving. The need for students to understand and to manipulate materials is imperative. One such project incorporates all of these ideas. It is the origami paper brain model by Martin Pyka. Examples below are from my 6th gr. class. http://www.martinpyka.de/paperbrain/
