How I envision integrating art in my classroom:
I will integrate art in my classroom by allowing my students to demonstrate their knowledge and understandings in an art form instead of through the typical exam. For example, if I were to do an activity on World War I, I would allow my students to demonstrate the events by conducting a play or skit, a demonstration using clay, by writing peom or speech, etc,.
What I know about integrated learning/ integration:
I know that integrating art provides multiple ways for students to make sense of what they've learned and it helps them to build deeper understandings. Integration helps teachers to mix things up by allowing the students to have many different learning experiences that will hopefully stick with them for a long time.
Rate your comfort level in making art and discuss: (1 uneasy and 5 Comfortable):
5! I am extremely comfortable when it comes to making and discussing art! I am very comfortable because I have always viewed art as relaxing. Also, my former art teacher, Mrs. Brown, was able to muster out my talents/abilities. I don't view myself as the best artist in the world or even a very talented one, but I do know that I am capable of improving and making great pictures.
Rate your comfort level in analyzing and talking about art and discuss (1 uneasy and 5 comfortable):
4! I am very comfortable talking about art! I may struggle with using the correct terminology at times, but I can fix this quickly just by doing a little research before I conduct my lessons. Moreover, I am very comfortable with discussing how an art project makes me feel, what it makes me think, and sharing these thoughts with others.
