This is a digital download for four TEKS charts for Art 1-4. I created it because it is much easier to understand and locate TEKS quickly when organized in a more visual manner. TIP: Put them in a plastic sleeve and check off ones with a marker that you have covered in lessons/projects. I've also given these to my older students so that they see what they should be able to do.

This is used to give to student/clients and teachers to inform or remind them about their counseling appointments. Editing the PDF to add the counseling location (with a text box) is helpful if the location never changes. My location was not always the same and sometimes I worked with students in the classroom so it was useful to add a location. Six notes to a copy paper sheet (to be cut with a paper trimmer). Individual notes are slightly larger than a sticky note (4x4").

This was created as a midterm or end of course exam grade for my high school art students.

This is a design matrix for students to demonstrate that they can use the Elements of Art and Principles of Design together in mini-designs. This is a one page paper with small boxes but I have a much more extensive example in my store.

This is a great tool to get to know your art students during the first week or so. Students will fold the paper in half, answer the basic questions on the back of the name tent and illustrate the front with their name and any other decorations and doodles that will help you remember their names and things about them. The other side has a scale that they put a marker on that will let you know important information about them as art students. For example, whether they are experienced at creat

Do your students write distractingly ugly signatures on their artwork? Do you wish they would either try to do a better job at hiding their signature or discourage them from writing on the piece itself all together? This short lesson and discussion helped me to change the way my high school students signed their work! This document was created to use as a visual for a discussion on whether or not students should sign their artwork and it includes tips on tasteful signature placement, style, e
