This week I was settled in a little more and was getting to know the pupils a little better. I focused on the projects getting started and managing materials for each project.
Testing materials
For each of the projects with my classes, this was a week for material exploration and learning. It gave me a chance to see the skill levels of the students with the chosen materials and to figure out the way in which the art room functioned in regards to materials management and storage.
My 5th year group work on text based studies, I provided the text and it was clear that the online system which I used to communicate with them was not one they used often. I have to ensure that the materials and instructions I provide are put in the appropriate place online for students to access or review.
