The No-No Board: What I say to my students!

no-no board
 
I've been asked what I say to my students when introducing
the no-no board...so here it is!
I work better with an audience..but it gives you an idea.

  1. Thanks for posting! Stick figure baby was seriously funny. The best antidote for all of this is drawing from life. The art room can be such a confining space. Don't you think? Getting out of the art room and bringing life into the art room is important but so hard! I think that the symbols kids used will be "replaced" with symbols teachers want them to use unless we show what things look like or give them experiences. After I give students the experience of observation I might expect a little more than a sun in the corner! That naughty sun!

  6. I LOVE the no no board! I use those "no" things now but a board is a much easier reference!
