Now, how many of these things do you recognize from Pinterest? So glad to get them off my "pin boards" and into my real life classroom :) I am not going to credit each item to the original creator here because there are so many, but you can find them with a simple click from my Pinterest boards (most of these are from "Art Room") at http://pinterest.com/hhk67/boards/. Have a wonderful new school year, readers, and welcome back Dolvin families - get ready to "reach for the stars"!

A still UNFINISHED room sign I have been piddling with since the beginning of last year.
I just can't get it finished. One day...
So much good stuff happening here!! I mean, seriously. I love the small higher order words (also have it pinned), will need to print asap. Love your Unit 1 bulletin board----AMAZING! Stealing that for sure.
ReplyDeleteHow did you hang your frames? I'd like to do something like that soon.
Hope to see a copy of your new portfolio covers soon :)
You're the bomb!
I love those Scholastic posters!! AndI am going to your pin boards for those rubric sheeets. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI tweaked all of those rubrics to meet my class needs by pasting the image from Pinterest onto a word doc, then pasting text boxes over the words I needed to change. It's pretty easy. Good luck!
DeleteLooks great! I have the same box of supplies from Dixon to try out! Deciding if I am going to do a trial on my own or save them for the kiddos! I think putting them through the rigor of the kids will be a more viable test.... :) going to check out your board! Have to go up and start to get my rooms ready also! Thanks for always sharing your ideas and have a great year! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I'm itching to get back in my room and get started soon too. I really like your round table arrangement- looks like there's be good flow.

I just spent some time browsing your Art Room Pinterest board. Thanks for sharing -- such great poster ideas!!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't seen the 3,2,1 critique sheet before. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteI seriously need to take more surveys. You got a $20 one. Someone else I saw today got a $100 gift card for pinning something on Pinterest. Wow.

DeleteI was wondering if you have your critique sheets, rubrics, and portfolio templates for sale or if you'd be willing to share a copy of them each? They would be AMAZING resources for me to use in my own art classroom. Thank you!!!

ReplyDeleteI am working on assessment for my Professional Development Plan this year. For part of it I have to research what other art teachers are using. I just happened upon your blog while in pinterest. Someone said that your blog is full of great stuff, so I decided to take a look! WOW! I am impressed.

ReplyDeleteWhat are the metal things your table labels are made of and where can I find them? Taping papers to the table doesn't work and hanging things over the tables doesn't work with my ceiling.
ReplyDeleteThey are bookends that IKEA used to sell. Sadly they no longer do. They were awesome!
DeleteOh my gosh so much good stuff! Are you on TPT?
