Not Working???!!!
by Frustrated Artsy Teacher
Nov 20, 2013
What do you do to motivate kids in art? I have a few that simply will not work and the rest seem to be loafers. I think I need to be meaner and give them a kick in the you know where. My kids like to talk and play too much. Many have uncompleted assignments. The past 2 months they have only done 3 assignments. I have decide not to give anymore make up days in the future and let the chips fall where they may, but could use other tips. My assignments have been fairly simple, but they seem to act like even those are a challenge. I want them all on the same page making great art.

Can you give a little more info about your students?
