I have students choose a work, write down five visual likes about it. That list is given to another student to create a work. (This was a after principles and elements lessons/vocabulary). The idea here being an introduction to how verbal language affects art, art creates a language… really trying to get those observation and word skills to merge with the creative visual ones.

The actual critique(criticism) is much easier imho.

I have my students lay out all their work for the quarter, then we talk about it. Takes like 30 seconds to a minute or kid. This allows to give them credit for knowledge of the material even if execution was lacking. I call them interviews. It also helps them verbalize their thoughts and work

How to cope without a partner to team teach for Fine Arts-art, music and theater arts?

My school deliberately cut the number of classes that the specials teachers teach so that we could be building subs for quarantined and sick teachers (we are hybrid). So... I teach fewer classes (which is a relief because specials teachers teach way more classes than core teachers normally) but I'm pulled for most of my planning periods to babysit classes. I need my planning periods so I can redo my ENTIRE curriculum... and I just feel unappreciated, used, and nothing more than a babysitter.

It only took me 7 years to figure this system out.... posting in case it helps anyone else! I color coded my classes and printed off numbers according to the number of kids in my classes. I then assign each kid a number that corresponds with my gradebook. When they turn in their projects, they put their number with it. This way, no contact and I can easily see who has and hasn't turned in their projects yet. I take the list down once they remember their number.
