Ok I had a hard time this week with reviewing and reflecting on this course. I had this moment as I was putting up my students artwork at our annual district art show, I realized I don't always see my progress. I have a problem living in the "Right Now". I have always had that problem in every aspect of my life. I often think back on my past but I never reflect on how it continues to shape my future and how everything now is also building that future. I was not sure about this course at first. I was thinking ok reflect on a lesson and teach it better next time, but this course is so much more then just lessons, behavior management or art. It gets you thinking about how everything in your life effects your as a teacher and you as a person. Thank you Amy.
I think for my summative project I want to create a 3D work of art. I love to teach 3D but I haven't created a 3D piece of art that wasn't ceramics in a long time. I am also thinking BIG. I really want to show my students I do create art for myself (not just exemplars). I have been putting off some of my project ideas because I say I don't have time but I will make time for this.
I have included my original tree as referance:
I moved my teachers names and words describing their teachings to the roots of the tree, they are the foundation. I then add a leaf for each of my students. As you can see from the close up I put their names on the leaves. I would like to think that this is a flowering tree that will eventually have blooms, but what type of blooms are not clear yet.
