One of my favorite things about teaching art is designing units or lessons that connect to other subjects. There are also great benefits in making Art connections. They strengthen the learning for students and enhance our professional relationships. I try to at least make connections to content at least twice a year, but very often the lessons naturally connect to something because after all this artsaysthat observations, perceptions, concepts, innovation all come from something…not nothing!
The Top 10…actually 12 Art Connections on Campus document will give you an image at-a-glance and inspire your own Art Connections!
Great plan to be the art connector! I also like your personal goal to thoughtfully make multiple connections during the year. Words to work by.
