A 3-5 minute video at the beginning of class or to aid in my instruction is proving wonders. Many of the art students are after all, visual and auditory learners. I may then add in a short book, and/or demonstrate and then guided practice, then independent practice and monitoring/assisting as necessary. I sometimes wait to show "My" example so the students won't copy me. They need to learn to use their creativity/own ideas. The 2-5th grades students are all learning various twists on line and shape. They are doing amazingly well. K-and 1st grades students are learning about creating various things from shapes. We are having lots of fun! And, we are painting in almost every grade at all 4 of my schools. I love teaching art!
I want to share some videos I have used in my art classes that have worked. They are seen over and over by me, but for the students it's their first time. They love it! I have also learned that using sounds from my Ipad are effective as well. Now, here are some of videos. Enjoy.
