Class discussions - What is Art?

In class we started looking at picture prompts provided by Ms Dana and asked ourselves whether each item was Art. We made a decision and put our hands on our head if we thought it was art and crossed our arms if we thought it was not. We then had to explain why we said yes or no.

We came up with some great ideas about what art actually includes. The students then reviewed their ideas from Monday, looked at others ideas and then completed their own sentence - Art is ....

Students will post their definitions on their blogs and will continue reflecting tomorrow when we look at the rest of Ms Dana's slides.

The students also started setting up their developmental workbooks. They will use these to plan pieces of art and reflect on Art that we experience in the coming weeks.
