Description
My Choice-Based Art Classroom
Through the years, it's been apparent to me that though there are many resources available, it's always hard to tell what choice-based art classrooms might actually look like. I give an overview of the different aspects of my room and my experiences. I've been doing choice-based art since October 2015, and I have tried, failed, and succeeded. This document is sharing all of those aspects with you!
For your reference, I teach 4th, 5th, and 6th grade art. I have past experiences in teaching K-5 art. I believe that most of my practices and information can be applied to PK-8.
Here's what you'll find in this document (20 pages of information and images):
1. Introduction

3. Work Tables and Seating
4. Centers
5. Binders for Centers
6. Materials Pt.1
