I work at an alternative high school & will be teaching an art history course next quarter. My students tend work very slowly & I don't think I will be able to get as much into the curriculum as I would like. Think 4-6 full lessons If you only had 9 weeks with a group of students, what eras/ artists would you focus on? | ||||

Hello! I am about to do a Frida Kahlo project with my elementary aged kids. I was wondering what resources other teachers have used to introduce her life and work? I have the book 'Frida' by Jonah Winter. I was thinking, also, a video? But much of what is out there is too explicit for elementary school. Ideas? | ||||

We use O, S, N, I, and U for specials grades with most students receiving a Satisfactory. Our new online grading system automatically assigns a percent, which has caused parents some confusion and concern over grades when they see a percent in the high 80's.
