It's just how it is and a requirement. > Maternity leave doesn't count unless it's a full year with a > mentor assigned. Subbing definitely doesn't count. HI, thanks! I got the professional! I am really happy. The subbing did count for the experience and I did not need the one year mentoring because that is a new requirement that went into effect after I got my Initial certification.
It seems to me most art programs are opperating on a limited budget. I use copy paper almost exclusively with the exception of watercolor and a few big projects. You can create interesting projects using food dyes, but it must be carefully handed. I have artist friends that paint with coffee using sticks and then go back in and draw on top of the textual surface they created. Use brown paper bags to collage with other effemeral materials, draw, paint, and make portfolios. You can crumpel the paper and creat a beautiful surface for chalk, ink, oil pastels et..These types of projects demonstrate to students you do not have to have money to make art. You need a creative imagination.
I need help! I do not know if this is the right place to post this. I am a young professional, working in Fashion design and now I want to make a move into the teacher field. I want to be certified in art teaching. I already have a degree in fashion design, with all the core studio art/art history classwork that I had to take in college. Do I still need to attend school? Does this quality me to take the exam without any other schooling? I'm very confused and just looking for some direction. Thank you!
I have to do a 20 minute demo lesson for middle school. I have to supply all the supplies, and I only have 20 minutes. Any suggestions on what to do including an anticipatory set, intro the lesson and have lesson done, then a closing in this time frame?
