I work at an Arts school. I must be prepared with the necessary resources to prioritise the value of creativity in my classroom. There are many benefits that come out of integrating more creativity into the school day and improving classroom strategies.
Every Friday afternoon, my class participates in “Spotlight Artist”, and has the opportunity to create remarkable artwork.
These pieces of art are inspired by the “Artist of the Month”. Students are exposed to various artists such as Botero, Murakami, and Kusama.
I would like to continue to provide my students with rich instruction with the use of these art materials.
