Hi Carol,
I love your art show ideas. How did the thumbprint activity table look when set
up? Did you use a lot of ink pads? Towels to clean hands? Markers for
details? Were there examples on display? Did you pre-cut papers? Also, could
you describe the foamboard sign- in sheet? Did someone supervise so that no one
wrote too large? Did you have a box of markers sitting around?
Thanks,
Sky

Here is a fun plaster idea---a no fail---but can get very messy!
I did this with 3rd to 5th grade students at an art center--so maybe in a
school situation, do not try with students under middle school age?
1. Mix plaster in bucket--should be a thin mix (mound plaster just up to the
surface of water and then fold in---do not stir too fast as to create
bubbles)
2. Funnel plaster into liquid detergent bottles
3. Squeeze plaster into balloons. (This is the messy part! Sometimes the
balloon would pop off unexpectedly and give you a plaster shower--Of
course--THIS is what the local TV station got on film--they were kind not to
show that segment, though---but we were all laughing--it was a good time--we
had plenty of drop cloths)
4. Tie end of balloon (Hint: with small children--It is a good idea to
stretch the balloons ahead of time--I blew mine up with my vacuum
cleaner--Used pretty good sized balloons, too)
5. Shape balloon when it starts to feel warm to the touch. When
hardened--removed the balloon.
6. Balloon knot end may be filed off.
7. Mount balloon sculpture on wood base (we painted ours black first)--When
the plaster was completely dry--we sprayed with a clear varnish.
Some students made three balloon sculpture pieces and clustered them. The
finished sculpture looks much like the work of Arp. I think this idea came
out of an Arts and Activities or School Arts form the 70's. I am thinking
about trying it next spring---doing the pouring outside--with just one class
of eight grade students (the other class will have Art Tech--and some
students from that class will film the process)

Can anyone recommend some good books that are being used in colleges and
universities to train art teachers? I've been teaching art for over twenty
years and I never want to stop learning. Looking back, I think I recieved a
very poor education from elementary school all the way through college. I had
to learn everything on my own and through experience. I hope that students are
receiving a better education than what I had. Please tell me of any good books
to read on DBAE and on classroom teaching techniques.

Julie-This method is really inspiring me. But I don't have a full
understanding of it. I get how you make the paste-paint mixture, but- do you
have to have a heavy backing surface, like cardboard? Does it curl? Do you
just blend in the collage scraps with the paint-paste mixture? Could you
explain more? Thanks MJ

Hi Sky...The Thumbprinting Table was a great success and invloved minimal
prep and materials. It was actually the idea of Mary B. (Art Across America)
from this list who developed it and kindly shared this and many other ideas
from her Art Fair with me last year... (Thanks again Mary!!) I used a piece
of white foam core board cut to fit into a frame (18x36 I think). I had two
parents rotate during the evening to supervise, but the student volunteers
(grades 3,4,5) really "manned the station". Materials were two sets of red,
blue, and black ink pads, a canister of Baby wipes, and a handful of
sharpies. The sign above the table "Thumbprinting" was decorated with
sample thumbprint people. The table was positioned so that everyone who
attended could "sign in" upon entering or leaving....it resulted in a
beautiful memento of the show which now hangs in our school hall. Carol

Two other inexpensive tools that work well with paste painting are plastic
bottle caps (turn them as you push them and you will get marks that look like
giant noodles) and one inch strips of cardboard which you can use as you
would a style C ink pen to get thick and thin zig-zag lines.
We also make our own eraser stamps or foam stamps and use them.
Plastic letters (such as H) from alphabet sets (toy department at Odd Lots)
also make interesting patterns. Hold the letter upright as you move it
through the paste.
Wal-mart has rubber graining tools (grouting tools) in two sizes in their
crafts department. There are four different edges on these. They work great!
A workshop instructor liked to let one color dry with marks on it. She would
then put on a different color and make marks, which allowed the first layer
to show through in parts.
When I make paste papers for myself, I will sprinkle glitter on some of
them--in small amounts--while they are wet. The glitter adheres to the paste
as it dries with pretty results.

OK Judy, I am going to on alert for all of your middle school ideas. This
sounds like FUN. Have you thought of adding black powered tempera paint to
the plaster power to get a jump on coloring the sculpture? Would that work?
Let them try dry brushing the black sculpture with gold rub & buff afterward.
Or spray paint the sculpture with gold, silver, brass, and or copper then
antique it with a black or burnt umber wash and wipe it off. It is stunning
and looks real expensive. What are some of the shapes would you end up with
using these balloons?

Books that I am using to teach a graduate course include:
Dobbs - "Learning in and through Art: A Guide to Discipline-Based Art
Education"
Barrett - "Thinking about Student Art" (My students, all teachers in the
field, rated this book as topnotch for readability and down-to-earth writing
that relates to their classrooms ... not a lot of theory.)
Stewart - "Thinking through Aesthetics"
Beattie - "Assessment in Art Education"
And, if I may blow my own horn, please consider "Bridging the Curriculum
through Art", being published as we speak. My co-author, Nancy Walkup, and I
both come from public school art-teaching backgrounds. Our focus in the book
is to explain meaningful interdisciplinary connections while giving a variety
of hands-on activities. Like most of you, we were frustrated at the lack of
books that go beyond theory to actually show practical classroom application.
On the other hand, most books on application seemed to be weak in meaningful
exploration of works of art.

My school has an Art Supervisor that oversees all the art teachers in 6
elementary schools, the junior high and the high school. Her office is
seperate (shared with the music supervisor) and she regularly comes to
our art office to talk to us. There are 7 full time HS art teachers and
3 part-time. I think we have about 13 full-time teachers in all. She
observes us, listens to us, has monthly meetings with us, etc...
She teaches one high school class and the rest of her job is
administrative work for our department. She is extrememly involved with
all of us and regularly gives us feedback and may just pop-in
unexpectedly from time to time. For example the other day I was doing
the final critique on a cubist project in my ceramics class and she
stopped in to give me something. She liked the critique I was doing and
decided to stay for about a half of an hour to watch. She later told me
that she really liked what she saw. She is also there to offer
suggestions when needed and is vocal if she sees something that needs to
be changed.
I hope this helped. Let me know if you have questions.

I'm sending this out to the ArtsEdNet list and to the Kancrn list.
It's a copy of an e-mail I sent out earlier today to ten teachers
who had expressed interest in a research project I proposed early
this school year. It has taken some time to develop it so far.
I thought others might want to join us in this effort. The main idea
is to involve students in real, meaningful research using the internet.
While we are not using the internet to conduct the interviews, we
are collaborating with other schools over the internet to jointly participate,
and we intend to use the web to publish our findings for all to see and use.
The post is as follows:
Hey there,
We finally did it, we got our questions developed for our first artist.
I'm so glad I took the time to have my students (Hour 4 only) develop the
questions. It has been work, but they will feel so much more that it is their
own project. The final questions for Jonathan Knight are posted at
http://kancrn.kckps.k12.ks.us/rosedale/duncan/Questions1.html#QuestionsJ.Knight
Please check them out. On that same page I tried to show the process of developing
the questions. I hope it makes sense.
The whole "Living Artist Oral History Project" is linked from my
Project Page at
http://kancrn.kckps.k12.ks.us/rosedale/duncan/project_wduncan.html
for those who want to go back and review the projects development.
Don't forget you
can contact the entire list of those interested in the project at
http://kancrn.kckps.k12.ks.us/rosedale/duncan/LivingArtistsContacts.html
Jonathan agreed long ago to be our trial interview. I'll contact him
soon and set the
date for the interview. I'm also going to send a copy of this post out
to the entire
ArtsEdNet list to let people know what we are doing. Maybe others may
want to join
us on the project.
Thanks for hanging in there, Woody in KC

Dear Colleagues,
I just added a unit of shelving to my room that has improved my organization
tremendously. My principal, who builds cabinets in his limited free time,
built me a paper shelf. I like to have a variety of colored construction
paper available to my students at all times, but just having a stack all
mixed together was not working. Consequently, I requested shelving that
accomodates nine colors of both 9x12 and 12x18 paper (in 4" stacks). It
looks great, and fits neatly on my counter. In return for his generous
favor, I will be painting his portrait.
My next task is figuring how to organize and make available (and attractive)
scrap paper. Students try to sneak the full sheets of paper in my great
looking new shelves, instead of using the scrap paper that looks like a
garbage heap. We discussed this matter on the list before, but I never
found a suitable way to organize the scraps. I have small, odd sizes of
paper separated by color in xerox paper boxes, but I don't have the room to
put them all out. I was thinking that those stackable (open in front)
baskets might be attractive, space-saving scrap bins. What do you think?

Hi Janice: 3rd graders created poster-size collages that represented a
Japanese water garden with koi and a landscape of their choice and one
figure. They were beautiful. The papers were made by each student during
the 1st class. One table group made paste paper for koi out of flourescent
colors; another group made paper to represent plants using browns and greens
and the 3rd table group used dippity dye paper to create the water using
tints of blue, green and pearlescent medium. I would love to send you a
photo of some of the best pieces, but I still need to purchase a scanner. If
you give your snail mail address, I'll send you a copy.

Hi MJ: I use just regular drawing paper for this. Anything lighter would
probably tear. With the drawing paper, you can repaint the surface once or
twice if you don't like the results. It curls a little, but can be flattened
easily. The collage comes in from cutting this hand-made paste paper into
whatever shapes you need. I keep a big box of all the students scraps for
lots of other projects during the year. For instance, K students just used
some scraps and made rectangles and squares to make a collage of a figure in
a gesture. Two rectangles made one leg, bent at the knee, etc. Does that
make sense?

I've found that scrap paper stores best flat, as in a portfolio. My problem
with a bin has always been that somewhere along the line someone (last time it
was a teacher) uses it as a trash can and that's it. I keep a strong portfolio
near the paper. I open it when the kids are in the room, close it to store.

No assistants but I do have parent volunteers for 1 1/2 hours everyday - I
have done that for several years... and when I had K-1's the classroom
assistants would come with the kids if I asked - sometimes I didn't ask -

I just posted my permission to publish form. The URL is below.
I'm having trouble publishing to the Kancrn server today, so
I'm putting everything new on the taospaint web site.
http://www.taospaint.com/PermissionToPublish.html
I want to present everything to my students this week and to my
internet instructor tomorrow night. Spring break is one week away
and I want to spend the time playing with my grandkids.
Let me know if you see any needed changes in anything I post
related to this "Living Artist" project.
Thanks, Woody in KC

Could someone tell me of a website of artist's biographies that would be
suitable for 4th or 5th graders?
Thanks, Sky

"Bridging the Curriculum through Art" is in the 2000 Crystal catalog now,
although I don't know when the first shipments will go out.

It's been a while, but I finally found the name of the Tony Hillerman
book that was mentioned when we were discussing religion ideas in the
classroom. I don't know who asked for the name but the book is called
TALKING GOD. It's worth reading. Enjoy!

Sky, visit my artist research site at:
http://artmosphere.homepage.com/pages/spotlight.html and click on lists of
artists. There's 9 web-sites that I've thoroughly browsed that contain
artists's biographies for my 6-8th graders. If I had to choose my favorite
one to suggest for 4th and 5th graders, I'd say Celebrated Artists (a
ThinkQuest site) at:
http://hyperion.advanced.org/17142/celebrated-artists/index.htm.

That would be absolutely wonderful if one of our murals worked out for your
project. Is this a Take 5 series of prints- they are great resources! Let me
know if I can be of any other help.

Hi K:
I'm in Toledo, Ohio and just did Georgia O'keefe style paintings with my
fifth graders. The paintings are gorgeous. Would I be able to display
student work, even though I'm not from Michigan?
