Finally had a day of Senior Project that wasn't related to the art show which was a super nice break. In the morning I made a special cake for Jills daughters birthday party. Then for the first class of the day, Digital Photo, we went to the Meeting House to do an art show critique. We also did this for the second class of the day, Recycled Art. This involved having the students find what they deem as the best in the show. We had them find one from each of these categories: 3D sculptures, drawings/paintings, and photos. We also had them give feed back on the term about their likes and dislikes. The last thing we had them talk about was what effort grade they thought they deserved. We met in a circle and each student gave their answers on these questions. Looking forward to tomorrow even though I sad its the last day with Jill!

Weekly Reflection 2

 5/22/22 8:30pm Total Hours: 49 Week two of Senior Project was hands down one of the most tiring weeks of my school year. The combination of teaching, the art show, and sports definitely wore me out. I am still not sure about the whole teaching thing, but I think this week I was more successful and prepared than the first one. After setting up the art show, I can say the art teachers that do the work for it are some of the most under-appreciated for sure. I had no idea how much work it took to set it up. This week was full of a tone of work and I continued to learn about being a teacher. Jill was unfortunately still gone for the first part of the week, which meant I was on my own again with teaching her classes. I felt far more prepared to take on this week though with last week's experiences and knowledge. The classes went much smoother because I was more confident in just telling students to knock it off with the annoying stuff and do their work. I took on a different mentality a...

 5/13/22 6:50pm I had to teach 3 classes today, the first of which was Textile Skills. This is a hard group to motivate, especially with out Jill, because the class requires a lot of her help on their projects. I am not the best at sewing, but Jill and I have been coming up with other projects for them to do that I can easily help with. After this class, I went over to Slocumb to teach Digital Photo. I had Jill on facetime and we helped students finalize their art show photos. This involves giving them names and making sure the editing is perfect. The last class of the day was Recycled Art. Some of the students worked on current projects while others did a new egg carton face project. The last thing I did, was working on the tree line of my landscape painting for the art show. I am working hard to finish it on time for the art show. Hours: 5.5 Total Hours: 23

May 9th

 5/9/22 9:20pm Today I met up with Jill in the morning to come up with a plan for the rest of the week. After coming up with the weekly plan we went to assembly to meet her advisory before her first class. Jill's first class was Recycled Art in which I helped students with their projects. I mainly helped a girl who was making a mosaic. I also came up with a lesson plan which involved making a google slides for the Studio Art class in the afternoon. Unfortunately, during lunch, Jill found out she tested positive for covid meant I was in charge of her classes while she was on video with us all. Before class, I came in and got all the canvases and palates ready for the students. My class plan involved a Van Gogh lesson where I made a slides of examples and then took students outside to paint the daffodils. Throughout this period, I helped students with their techniques and then directed them on what to do to clean up. At the end of the day, I had a call with Jill to come up with a pla...
