Just need to remind everyone it's FAT BEAR WEEK! 🐻🐻🐻🐻 You can livestream and learn about a bunch of bears up in Alaska catching fish, getting fat, and getting ready to hibernate, then vote for your favorite! It's amazing 😂 explore.org/fat-bear-week

I'm a big fan of Otis (#480), who is so old and lazy he literally sits in the river and waits for salmon to jump into his mouth.

I love seeing this book!!!
Today is a game day in my art room. I’m doing a few things @TimBogatz mentioned on Art Ed Radio a few weeks ago. Students are starting with “Last Artist Standing” then my younger students are making modular drawings for surrealist book of sorts.

This is really interesting to me. A debate worth diving into for sure.
New: He used AI to win a fine-arts competition. Was it cheating? We talked to the creator, the artists he beat, oil painters, art critics and the judge, who said "it had an immediate story: People looking out into another world" wapo.st/3efNWuj

Grades can be punitive, inaccurate, inequitable; assessment is key! Take a look at these ways (from tipping your toes in by removing grading hurdles to piloting a grades-free system) & create authentic teaching & assessment practices! #k12artchat #gradesfree #assessment #artsed

This year I’m trying to mix things up with my Friday art games. After listening to Art Ed Radio from @theartofed and @TimBogatz I decided to play “last artist standing” then make collaborative drawings. To add to the fun I printed some custom stickers for the winners.

Kyle asked a good question here--who do you follow? Who shares good stuff? Who supports you? A few of my faves: Working w/adv. students: @mrsdean_art, @MrsLRodriguez, @jataylorart Art History: @WoodArtEd/@WhoARTedPodcast Literally everything else: @shinebrite71, @MrCCrespo
Today’s Art Ed Radio from @theartofed was great to listen to as I set up my classroom. @TimBogatz talked about the importance of sharing resources and supporting fellow art teachers. Who do you all follow? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Contour drawing is always worthwhile in the first days of school. @RobTheArtTeach had a great presentation at the NOW Conference that talked a little bit about contour work.

I really enjoyed this article from @jataylorart a few weeks back about what our students need from us this fall. Janet is a master of helping you take on big ideas, but also giving you a plan on how to do it. theartofeducation.edu/2022/0…
