I am looking for a program that my students can use to help them design rooms/homes. Preferably one that allows them to see what the designed home looks like on the outside, not just the floor plans. One that provides a number of "Views" at a number of angles. I'm hoping to collaborate with the math teacher on this project.
Needs: Animation
I would love to introduce my eighth graders to the world of animation where they can either use a stylus to draw their character, or use a preset character and then create frames where the character moves and the scenery moves too. Not sure if I'm asking the world here, but I have some amazing artists in my class that I'd love to support.
Needs: Accommodations
I have a student with palsy which makes any kind of art work challenging and he is quite frustrated. If there was an ap where he can create with a mouse, or...? Any advice would be welcome.
Available Technology:
Chromebooks (1:1) we have a Chromebook for each student but they are about 4 years old.
Your animation question stood out to me because some day I would like to find free software like that for myself. Try googling free animation software and try a couple to see if you like one.
As far as drawing on a tablet, I use a microsoft surface to create videos on you tube. If there is a tablet you can borrow and see if your students like it that might be worth a try.
You can see some of the art work I have created here using a stylus and tablet.
Anyone use oil pastels in your classroom? How do you keep kids from making sure they don't end up all over the floor? As well as them using the sides of them to color because they want to rush and finish their piece.
MeenaUsing oil pastels can be very difficult for children but at the same time interesting too. Children should be taught with able guidance about how to use them so that once they learn the art form it stays with them forever. Quality and professional art classes for children can be found on http://www.hapclap.com

I demonstrate some techniques and give students practice time. Then I stop and we talk about "problems" or what the students find difficult and I address that in another demonstration.
I make sure to tell them that oil pastels must stay in the container (bowl) and on the table. If one falls on the floor, pick it up. If there are kids who don't take care of the supplies, then they don't use them.
Using small paper for your project might help eliminate them trying to finish their piece quickly. If a lot of kids are doing that, it could be that the paper feels too big to fill in properly. Cut the paper size in half and see if it helps with the next class.

http://prographicworks.c...See MoreMy Dear Art Teachers, I'm working on posters for art classrooms and have designed a couple of them so far. I would be really glad if you could suggest me what kind of posters would be really helpful for your class. What topics would you like to see on your wall? Thanks for your help :-)
So, I would like to know what needs to be in my sketchbook? I have drawn many things but, is that all a University is looking for, or do I need to actually write down what it is and why I did it? I'm a little confused on the matter.
Need a little bit of help. I am wanting to donate some art supplies to an elementary school art teacher as a "a donation has been made to this elementary art teacher on your behalf" type thing. The person who it will be on behalf of was a former art teacher.
