“In planning learning activities to help students achieve the arts curriculum expectations,teachers need to ensure that students have opportunities to consider health and safety issues.”(Ontario Curriculum 2010: The Arts, Gr. 9 – pg. 23-28)

These are the rules I and my students have set out for our art classrooms:

1. CLOSELY FOLLOW CLASSROOM INSTRUCTIONS; YOU ARE AT A WORKSHOP WHERE ATTENTIVE LISTENING AND COOPERATION IS VERY IMPORTANT. 2. BRING YOUR OWN ART CLOTHING, WHICH IS STRICTLY USED IN THE ART CLASSOOM. YOUR UNIFORM WILL GET DIRTY AND PAINT WILL NOT COME OFF IT, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU WASH IT!!3. SAFETY COMES FIRST!! PLEASE KEEP SHARP TOOLS (SUCH AS SCISSORS, CARVING TOOLS, ETC.) AWAY FROM YOUR FACE. YOU MUST WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND WORKING GLOVES WHEN ASKED.4. PLEASE BE PATIENT AND WAIT FOR YOUR TURN. THE TEACHER WILL COME AROUND AND HELP YOU ONE BY ONE. DO NOT GET OUT OF YOUR SEAT; PUT UP YOUR HAND IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION. 5. SPRAY YOUR TABLE DOWN WITH THE CLEANING PRODUCT PROVIDED AND WIPE IT DOWN CLEAN.6. ALL WASTE MUST BE THROWN INTO THE GARBAGE BIN.7. YOU MUST LEAVE THE CLASSROOM SPIC AND SPAN!• WE ARE WORKING AS A TEAM, AND THEREFORE WE ARE CONSIDERED AS ONE. •CLEANLINESS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT RULES IN THE ART CLASSROOM.PLEASE FOLLOW ALL OF THE RULES! THE ARTROOM IS A SERIOUS ENVIRONMENT, WHERE SAFETY, CLEANLINESS AND RESPONSIBILITY COMES FIRST.

The Arts Curriculum and Environmental Education

“Ontario’s education system will prepare students with the knowledge, skills, perspectives, and practices they need to be environmentally responsible citizens.”

(Acting Today, Shaping Tomorrow: A Policy Framework for Environmental Education in Ontario Schools (2009), p. 6)

•The goal is to make students aware of environmental issues and solutions•In art class, students are connected to the environment, landscapes and the natural world as a whole•Students can explore social and political issues related to the environment•Students become aware of hazardous substances and its effects on the environment

 

Page 18: Gr. 9 Visual Arts Curriculum

Key Foundational Figure: John Dewey

• “Dewey believed that arts education was a foundational part of the curriculum because it developed creativity, self-expression, and an appreciation of the expression of others”

(Dewey 1919; Dewey 1934 – From Dewey to No Child Left Behind :The Evolution and Devolution of Public Arts Education by Julian Vasquez Heilig, Heather Cole, and Angelica Aguilar)

• “John Dewey believed every person is capable of being an artist, living an artful life of social interaction that benefits and thereby beautifies the world.”

Key Foundational Figure: John Dewey• “…a work of art develops and accentuates what is characteristically valuable in

things of everyday enjoyment.” ― John Dewey

• “Art is the most effective mode of communications that exists.” ― John Dewey

(Art as Experience by John Dewey in John Dewey and the Materialism of Art Education by David S. Manzella)

• “Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.” ― John Dewey

OVERVIEW OF MY GR. 9 ART CLASS

• Students achieved their utmost potential through the use of challenging mediums, such acrylic paints, water colours, gouche, pastels, wax, clay, Papier-mâché, Japanese glass seed beads, charcoal, art pencils and pine wood.

• In my class,students enjoyed Art, as it provided them with a forum for safe expression, imagination, exploration, communication and exchange of cultural and historical understanding.

As scientific research reveals, Art classes strengthen the student’s ability to solve problems, whilst applying their critical thinking skills.

Page 21: Gr. 9 Visual Arts Curriculum

OVERVIEW OF MY GR. 9 ART CLASS

• Moreover, art classes helps students with the development of their cognitive and creative skills, which in turn allows them to further succeed in their academic studies.

• Allowing students to take Art, increases their motivation to come to school, whilst providing a balance in their educational experience.

• By and large, students diligently covered famous artists, such as Vincent Van Gogh, Claude Monet, Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali and Leonardo Da Vinci.

• They also learned about ancient art related to the Stone Age and Egyptian Hieroglyphics. Moreover, they covered theory related to Motivated Art, Unmotivated Art and the meaning of ‘What is Art?’

Page 22: Gr. 9 Visual Arts Curriculum

OVERVIEW OF MY GR. 9 ART CLASS• Overall, through Art class, I not only thought

students to respect and show tolerance towards multicultural differences, but also to celebrate diversity and be more open minded.

• Due to the nature of Art class, students learned that collaboration is key to success, which in turn further helped them with their communication, complex problem solving and leadership skills.

• Utmost importantly, through regular participation in Art class, students learned how to regulate their self-confidence and self-discipline.

• Through the recommendations and guidance of the Art teacher, they learned how to be persistent in achieving high quality work via revision and application of special techniques.
