Started a class today on using vocab in the artroom. We're using the book Building Academic Vocabulary by Robert J. Marzano and Debra J. Pickering.
Today was spent getting to know the other Art, Music, Band and PE teachers in class from across the District. Making posters with our small groups that summarized a chapter...
We also put together a first draft of our proposed art academic vocabulary. More to come in the next few days...
OK. I saw you taking a picture of the book cover and it seemed a little funny. Duh! Now I get it. My brain is not in blogging mode... Today was really great. Glad we're doing this!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! You can't beat Marzano.
