HELP!! Brand new art teacher

by Mark

Jul 5, 2013

I can not locate the order of instruction for FL for intermediate grades 3, 4, 5. Does it exist? Is the curriculum which is listed on FLDOE site going to change for this year? I have pulled many cool lessons from all over and find that OCPS really doesn't have any listed. Any of your favorites that you can email, link, or direct me to would be grea...See More

Hey Art Teacher The only thing on the FL dept of ed website would be state standards. Each county should have some type of curriculum plan in place. My county recently redid ours and we have our training on it in a few weeks.

Art on a cart, huh? Been there for 7 years and still doing that. Keep it simple is all I can say. Do more art criticism, writing, ...See More

Classroom available but P. won't let me use it

by Hey Art Teacher

Jul 13, 2013

I have run into this constantly at all my schools over the years. There will be an empty classroom but the principal won't let the art teachers use it. They could be used for a "parent resource room" an after-school care room, or a conference room that gets used occasionally, and she just won't see our point that the art room would used by EVERYONE...See More

I have about a dozen talented 6-8 grade students whom I'm predicting will enroll in my Art Club this year. Does anyone wish to swap Artist trading cards about once a month? ..or l...See More

Elementary Art Budget

by Newbie

Jul 21, 2013

I am a new teacher, and I will be teaching K-6 in a school in a district that has never had art. There isn't really a program in place, and I haven't been given a budget. I was told to submit what I think I need. As we know, art supplies are expensive, so I was wondering what your budgets look like so I can get a guideline. I don't want to submit a...See More

NJArt I don't know why my last message erased what I wrote. Weird. Anyway, I get $6,000 per year for 750 kids... but I understand that in general I get a lot more then most elementary art teachers. I would say figure out what you need, then ask for some wants... this way if they tell you to cut back you can. Ask for more then you need... you never know, ...See More

Anyone national boards

by Kara

Jul 27, 2013

Is anyone doing national boards? I focus on drawing, painting, color theory, and art history with my students. Amy goal is for them to see objects and be able to render them realistically. Ai am having trouble coming up with an overarching goal though that meets the national board requirements.

Durable viewfinders- Can't bring myself to cut another set!

by Beeteach

Jul 29, 2013

I am tired of cutting viewfinders out every few years. I was think about using electrical outlet covers, but the whole is too big. Anyone have anything they use that is more durable and cheap. I need to buy a class set of 40.

Thanks!
