Final recflection

Arts Bridge was an amazing learning experience. gained a lot of classroom experience and had a blast at the same time. My favorite part was helping the students enjoy making art and feeling good about what they made. I never heard any of the students say that they weren't good enough to do these art projects; every student was excited every week I came with a new art project. They worked at different paces but they all finished their projects and created work they were proud to show off. I enjoyed giving students one on one time to help them with technical skill and give them personal guidance, they seemed to like the attention and applied what they learned. My classroom management skill were minimal at the start; this was my first experience in the classroom. By the end of the semester I had picked up on some of Lori's techniques and could get the classroom's attention when needed. I gained a better understanding of what 2nd graders are capable of and what they still need developing in when is comes to art project. I was glad to have resources and help with integrating the curriculum into the projects and thinking back wish I had used them a bit more. Overall it was a worthwhile experience for me, Lori, and the students. I'd be happy to do it again.
