's message, "six week lesson plans" on 18:41:01 08/24/05 Wed
I personally would go nuts repeating the same lessons every 6 weeks. However, I imagine it would make for an easier time with lesson planning. It would be fine to do that but I personally enjoy trying new projects in the classroom. I only repeat the lessons that I feel are successful and ones the kids really enjoyed. I suppose my approach would be to try lessons that aren't time consuming so that they get exposed to a variety of media in that short amount of time. Ideas..... drawing project maybe a one-point or two-point perspective, a watercolor abstract painting, a pinch pot or coil pot ( but clay takes time), a collage self- portrait ..That would prob be all you would have time for but it exposes them to alot of different mediums. another suggestion to save time is to make projects smaller in size. My 6th grade is set up for 6 weeks and I personally really enjoy it esp if I have a student that drives me nuts:) hehe
