Color coding EVERYTHING!! Color is easy to see—even from a distance. —-and using the ROY G BiV color spectrum can give you an order that easily followed. (I assign 1st grade the color red, 2nd is orange, 3rd is yellow, etc...)
I teach elementary art. I have 8 tables in my room, each table has a different color and I have color coordinated folders for each table. I teach K thru 6 in that room. In addiction, i have spray painted binder clips to coordinate a color for each grade.
(Example: a green folder with a red binder clip holding projects belongs to 1st grade students sitting at the green table. )
That may seem confusing to anyone else but it works perfectly for me.

I take the colors one step further and draw shapes at each table spot. This let's me give multiple jobs at once for each table such as: cleaning the table, putting away art, and picking up the floor. They can also be used on sticks or behavior charts/management so you don't need a different set for each group. (I haven't been using them this year as everyone has to bring or be passed all of their own individual materials)

I've been exploring exit opportunities for a few months and still holding out for the right opportunity.

They do the whole "your background and expertise is exactly what we're looking for" then turn around and offer a salary range that is 20k below my current level. My resume clearly says I've got 10yrs experience and an MBA. I **don't think* I should be getting offers of 80k-100k

One of the worst double standards in corporate america.

Companies especially startups expect you to not keep interviewing when you accept a job offer. “It can deteroriate your brand.”

But companies would replace you in a heartbeat for almost any reason. Including interviewing a candidate who will replace you (you will be fired as soon as they find a person).

So companies can fuck with the little guys but we can’t look for our best interest?

Additional Posts in Elementary Art

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much! I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do! Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

Anyone have some great organization hacks to share?

Anyone here have experience with schedules on a 20 day rotation? It’s my second year at a new very large elementary school.

Each week’s schedule is different for 4 weeks (20days) and then it starts all over again. 17 of those days I teach 6 or 7 classes and 3 of them I teach 5 classes. I’m terrified of this school year!

Would love to hear how others in this situation have dealt, especially with organization of schedule! I need to have the whole 20 day schedule visible somehow so I can plan

Split classes take away joy! We have 6-7 classes at each grade level and they split 1-2 into the remaining 5 so we can have a 5 day schedule. Big classes plus the classroom culture homeroom teachers work so hard to achieve are ruined. Advice? (Plus we are told to "not be negative" by admin.)

About to start clay projects and my experience is mainly at the middle school level. Any advice for teaching clay to elementary students to keep from loosing my mind?

I cheated... we aren’t supposed to do real art in the morning. We watch an art video and discuss in the morning, then in the afternoon we post an instructional video and the kids do a small project at home... I cheated yesterday. I handed out air dry clay and went to town with my 3rd grades.... the kids said it was the most fun art class ever. I will get in trouble for passing stuff out, but I needed it. So did the kids. Best art day all year!
