|
Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum: |
|
The program that Mr. Pitkin presented impacted my students learning by presenting something totally foreign to them and guiding students to discover themselves within a new cultural experience. This development of visual literacy by dicussion, process and technique ties in with my lessons for the students each class.
|
Suggestions to artists for improvements: |
|
|
None. Mr.Pitkin knows his stuff! He guides his program with a respectful hand and the students respond well and enjoy it completely. The amount of students who were walking down the halls playing their didge and showing off their artwork is a testament to the strength of the program.
