Myths of TAB: Students don't learn skills or grow, they just do the same thing over and over.

Fact: The choices made by students in a TAB classroom are very individualized, so each student has a unique experience. 
Second Fact: Doing the same thing over and over is how mastery is achieved!

What success looked like in my classroom this week: 
Picture
The girl who only worked in pencil, in her sketchbook and drew only from her imagination is making finished pieces, in color and using classmates for models!
Picture
The student who learned a new process so well that she's proudly wearing her custom screen print to the senior awards show and picnic.

Picture
Choosing to redo paintings created during the first weeks of school because they know they can do better being able to see how far they've come.
Picture
Taking zentangle to the next level.
Picture
Working until you figure out how to make those clouds look just like you want them to.
Picture
Collaborating to make something that is beautiful and functional - and that you can bring home to shoot sparklers with over Memorial Day weekend!

    I'm interested in creating a student student centered space  for my high school students through choice and abundant opportunity for self expression. I'm also a writer for SchoolArts co-author of  The Open Art Room.
