It seems to me that once we turn the corner of January, I start getting itchy feet knowing I don't have long with the students. January moves along and then all of a sudden it seems we are thrown into February with African American/Black History Month, March is crazy due to Spring Break, the April arrives and we have 7 weeks of school left! Yikes! For some reason, I always seem to teach/re-teach/review sixteenth note notation beginning in late January/early February. There are SO many wonderful pieces of music to use with the wonderfully fun sixteenths! Here are several of my favorites: 1. Chicken on a Fencepost - my kids can't get enough of this and the game is so fun!! 2. Woodchuck Another fun one with lots of tongue-twisted excitement! Transfer each line of ostinato to an upitched percussion instrument - wood only, ha! 3. Hole in the Bottom of the Sea Classics are classics for a reason! This one is very exciting when sung at a breakneck tempo! 4. Old Brass Wagon I posted on this before using an improvisation lesson for recorders here. 5. Ding Dong Diggidiggidong I love this one, and the kids do, also! Available here from Beth's Music Notes: Ding Dong Diggidiggidong 6. Kookaburra This is a lovely canon from Australia. The Kookaburra is a bird that makes a very funny sound!

I was inspired today by @mathequalslove's blog post today about her Red/Yellow/Green Team Cups Posters. So I decided to smash together two ideas from my Collaborative Teams structure. Idea #1 A few summers ago, the R/Y/G Cups were a big topic on Twitter and I was introduced to the idea thanks to @druinok in her July Blogging Challenge #5things blog post. I even searched all over and found the perfect cups to go with my classroom theme. I even created a "Team Task" Cups Strategy Sheet, but I never really followed through with the idea that year. I had a really good group of students and I never found it necessary or the opportunity to implement it. I could have used the idea with last year's students, but never found the time to follow through.... And the cups still sit in my cupboard.... Unopened... Idea #2 If you have seen my "Team Tasks" or my Socrative "Team Tasks" you know that I like to emphasize the Collaborative Team Structure with "Team Task" Expectations that are read by the Task Manager at the very beginning of the "Team Task". For Example: So after reading mathequalslove's blog today I got the idea to smash these ideas together, revitalizing the Team Cup Strategy that never came to fruition with my always used Team Task Expectations Strategy. I created a "Team Task" Expectations sheet that will be read by the Task Manager at the beginning of every task. On the back of the "Team Task" Expectations sheet will be my "Team Task" Cups sheet, which I modified a little. I am going to print them on card stock and put them in sheet protectors. Here are the files for my "Team Task" Expectations and "Team Task" Cup Strategy. Feel Free to Download and Use. I included the Word files for you to modify to fit your needs.

I was so pumped to start my second year as a TAB Teacher. My first year, I was scared and held back a little. I was nervous that mad chaos would ensue, so I was extra careful to make sure that routines and procedures were in place. It was magical how students were engaged, on task, creative, natural collaborations would occur and the conversations about art would make my heart beat faster. It was an energetic year, we had visits from administration, the newspaper and even local channel news. I was humbled and proud of my students. This year is my second year... I have been surfing waves of delight and frustration as I revise, plan and modify our studio centers. I believe in TAB, I trust that it is a pedagogy that has my students best interest at heart. As a mommy of four, it is how my children learn with their art teacher, Maryellen Picker. I see the excitement they display on days that they have art. They light up when they bring home their creative artworks, and I love seeing the windows into how they think and design. For my students, I have deeper, more meaningful relationships with them because I see them through their art. I have met up with some wonderful TAB art teachers in the St. Louis area, and I frequent the Midwest TAB-Choice Facebook group for support. Everyday is new. To make things go more smoothly in the planning process, I have created this plan sheet. It is a culmination of different artist statement, reflection forms and other plan sheets that I have seen on pinterest and TAB groups. I want to share it, in case it may be something that may help you. There are 2 plan sheets, one that integrates elements of art and another that integrate the principles of art. I have provided links to the google documents so that you can print them out. I have used this recently and have been happy to see how it guides my students thinking. As I ride the waves and try to balance on my surf board, I may revise again and again, but here is my first draft. Enjoy.
