Do You Know How to Start Art? My Guide to the Beginning of an Elementary Art Class

Do you know how to start art? Do you have a solid start of class routine for your elementary/ primary art classes? Do you wow evaluators with your art class opening? Do former students visit with you and recall how they enjoyed your classroom rules and begin reciting them?

If you answered no to any of these questions, I am going to teach you how to start art! I am a K-6 Elementary/Primary Art Educator in a Tile 1 school just outside of Washington D.C. This video is an in depth walk through of how I organize the beginning of my elementary art classes. I explain all the details from getting students seated to the start of my lessons.
