Course Description: The implementation, discussion, and evaluation of art instruction
for K-12 populations. The emphasis in this course will be on the art instruction of
children ages 5-15 yrs. Each student will be required to develop definite lesson plans or a
set of procedures to teach a series of lessons to children on-line. The specific ten Saturday
mornings that we will teach and work with children should be free from other
responsibilities in order to meet these requirements. ARE 486 meets the state certification
requirement for the elementary methods class. Prerequisite: ARE 482.
Course Goals/Objectives and Arizona Professional Teaching Standards:
Students will:
1. Become knowledgeable about how students learn (1.4, 1.5, 1.8, 2.6).
2. Become familiar with experiences that are developmentally appropriate for learners
(1.2).
3. Learn a variety of methods, materials & resources used to teach art (1.1).
4. How to address physical, mental, social, cultural and community differences among
learners (1.5). 5. Learn a variety of cognitive levels in children’s perception in creating
(1.3). 6. Learn about implementing and evaluating classroom management plans (2.1,
3.5). 7. Create assessments to match curriculum activities and art standards (4). 8.
Collaborate with mentor teacher to work with parents to enhance student learning in
school on Saturday mornings and at home. 9. Become knowledgeable about teaching art
studio, art history, and aesthetics (1.1,1.4, 3). 10. Become knowledgeable about state and
national art standards. 11. This year you will also become knowledgeable about teaching
on-line. We will be using Canvas to teach on-line.
Course Requirements and Evaluations:
1. Regular attendance and class participation is expected. You will be responsible for
teaching in the Children’s Art Workshop (CAW) program for ten weeks. You will be
graded on how well you handle this responsibility. Keep your Saturdays open during the
ten weeks of the CAW program during the time of the CAW program. 25% of total
grade
2. Curriculum Design- Each individual is required to develop a 10-week art curriculum.
Usually you will teach ten separate lessons. On Wednesdays you must have a written
review of your previous Saturday Teaching. Fridays you must turn in a lesson written
plan you will teach on Saturday and be ready to present this in class. A written copy of
this lesson must be turned in to the professor each week (no hard copies please send
lessons via the Canvas or email). You will create a lesson in collaboration with your
teaching partner. We will decide in class whom your teaching partner(s) will be this
semester. 20% of total grade
3
3. Implementation of your art educational curriculum and an evaluation of your teaching
effectiveness will be observed and evaluated. Your use of time, planning, clear
communication of goals and purposes of your lessons, and your general organization will
be evaluated. Each student will turn in a written evaluation of the CAW class they taught
each week; usually on Friday. If you are teaching with a partner you will each still need
to write a separate evaluation of your Saturday CAW experience. 25% of total grade
4. Final Project (This is basically a refined and completed version of the curriculum you
used to teach from in the Children's Art Workshop for the ten weeks including photos of
students, teacher samples and resources). We will discuss in class creating a virtual final
exhibition so it is important to take photos of your projects and classes as you teach
during CAW. 30% of total grade
Students who successfully complete this class will receive credit for one of their required
observation blocks in the ASU Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, iTeachAZ program.
To be discussed.
Fingerprint Clearance. The University has mandated in the past that all of our
instructors that work with minors get a fingerprint clearance. I will give you more up to
date information on this if this is still a requirement for the Children’s Art Workshop.

a. Titles of each lesson
b. General Purpose(s) and age group for which it is intended
c. Objectives
d. Motivation
e. Materials
f. Description of Activities
g. Clean - Up Procedures
