I'll be a first-year PreK–8 art teacher this fall, and I'm honestly not sure where to start with curriculum planning. I want to use studio habits of the mind approach, I just finished reading the book.

My initial idea was to have each grade explore the same broad themes throughout the year (identity, community, nature,) but have each grade create different types of projects and at different skill levels obvi

Is that a good way to start? how do you plan an entire year across so many grade levels without feeling completely overwhelmed lol

I plan to just drop the resume to the security officer, not hang around for the principal. Do you think this shows initiative or comes off as annoying/ trying to cheat the system?

Hi all- I have my first demo next week for a middle school position. I have never taught middle, only elementary and high school. Any advice for project ideas for a 40 minute demo?
