A1. Leo from CoTA. Posting late, but was intrigued about the image for Q1, so I had to drop by. I see ovals making circles. Black and white. Movement from stillness. It’s a bit dizzy, disorienting. 😵💫
A4: Students examine artwork for examples of processes, demonstrations of specific elements, and what ideas are being represented through the art. #CaArtsEdChat giphy.com/clips/original…
A3: Last night! I’m enrolled in UCSD Extension’s Children’s Book Writing + Illustration program and I’m reading and reviewing children’s stories + books, as well as reading classmates’ reviews every week. Pictured is one of my recently-reviewed books. #CaArtsEdChat
A2. Students in CoTA classes regularly examine and discuss various pieces of art: selected inspirations, their own, and those produced by their classmates. #CaArtsEdChat media.giphy.com/media/VDTGsgOW…
CoTA Fall Literary Institute: FREE for K-8 teachers, offering strategies using visual arts, spoken word, comics, theater, and movement to inspire students to engage more creatively with ELA. For information, and to register, cotaprogram.org/cota-literary-…
A4: I live it. It seems every time I draw, my style evolves. Very much need to discipline myself towards consistency for a particular project. Here’s my two latest. Left is ink, crayons + digital. Right is digital. #CaArtsEdChat
A3: Love it, though I cheated w/ previously-written haiku. Thanks 4 letting me share. 😌 Let’s do more of this, por favor! I enjoy the occasional jump into new unfamiliar playgrounds. Sometimes, I’ll stay and play (as I’ve done with poetry in the past couple years). #CaArtsEdChat
A2: Here’s an older one, Matt’s editorial comic. #CaArtsEdChat
A1: Sorry, missed last week as I was out of town. Again, posting early as I am teaching during #CaArtsEdChat. Here’s a haiku I wrote recently. Reminder: #inktober2021 #drawtober2021 going on all month. Post your art!
A4: Some of the awesome moves from some of my recent Pre-K and K classes. In addition to spatial concepts, we get storytelling, full body activity, sequencing, music, and.. FUN! #CaArtsEdChat
A2: By having student artists demonstrate processes and techniques. Save some of that “teacher” stuff for them to do, to emphasize the idea they can learn from each other. #KeepKidsCreative #CaArtsEdChat
A1: Hi, all. Leo from CoTA, early again as I have a Wed after school class. Miss our live chatting! I love gathering with family and friends for Thanksgiving. Special challenge this year is celebrating with heart healthy foods. #CaArtsEdChat images.app.goo.gl/jqWnGgvZMCoofT…
A4: TranscenDANCE is AMAZING! Offering much free and wonderful dance programming for young dancers and their families, employing many talented teaching artists. tdarts.org #CaArtsEdChat
A3: Offering even more arts-infused learning in STEAM, literature, and math to local educators and artists. media.giphy.com/media/l3q2ymon… #CaArtsEdChat
A2: Arts = connection. We’re happy to host occasional workshops with community members beyond our regular Teaching Artists. Most recent was with Amy Spencer of San Diego Book Arts. gph.is/g/4DW2WJO?tc=1 #CaArtsEdChat
